No Barriers Event: What's Your Everest (WYE) Climb

By Scott Rains on January 28, 2013 12:24 PM

What's Your Everest 2013 Dates Announced!

Mark your calendars for the third annual What's Your Everest (WYE) Climb with No Barriers in Colorado! We'll gather as a group of community members and supporters and tackle a very literal barrier - hiking one of Colorado's highest mountains at over 14,000 feet in elevation! 

WYE Colorado will take place the weekend of May 31st/June 1st. We have yet to determine all of the details - including which mountain we'll climb, but we wanted you to have the dates so you could mark your calendars.

WYE is a symbolic and literal journey utilizing the No Barriers mindset to face a physical challenge! The event is open to anyone who donates or fundraises $500 for No Barriers in 2013. Details will follow soon! 

If you have questions in the mean time, please contact Katie Watkins atkatie@nobarriersusa.org or             970-484-3633      .
