Join the Hickory Legacy Foundation in a celebration and fundraiser supporting summer youth programs and the return of youth skiing to Hickory for the 2023/24 season! The Hickory Hike 4 Kids event will be an all-day affair with a community hike up our recently renovated trails, an outdoor BBQ featuring music, local beer and wine, delicious food, family games, and two live bands!
At 11:00 am, three hiking options will be available: the summit hike, which is the most challenging; the mid-station hike, which is moderate; and the base hike, which is mostly flat ground and the easiest of the three.
The Hickory Legacy Foundation is committed to promoting healthy lifestyles, educational and recreational opportunities, and environmental sustainability in the region, specifically the 3 Sisters Range. Proceeds from the fundraiser will support ongoing operational costs, the Hickory EcoLearn summer program, and youth ski programs!
