VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! SIGN UP HERE.

Part bike ride, part food drive, part scavenger hunt. Bike Durham is teaming up with Crank Arm Brewing to host Durham’s inaugural Cranksgiving, part of the worldwide Cranksgiving event, in support of Emanuel Food Pantry.

Riders will get a list of grocery stores to visit for nonperishable donations, plus a few scavenger hunt tasks. Ride on your own or with a team, and complete as much of the list as you want. It’s not a race, so go at your own pace.

Bring a bike, a bike lock, a backpack, and $15–20 to purchase nonperishables. You can split purchases among team members or ask friends and family to chip in a few dollars.

Registration begins at noon at Crank Arm, and the ride starts at 1pm. Plan to be back by 3pm. Donations will be weighed, and prizes will be awarded in several categories around 3:30pm.

We’re also looking for volunteers to help with check-in and registration, gathering prizes, weighing donations, and tear-down, including getting all the food over to Emanuel at the end of the day.
