NASCARP- Davis Ponds Cup Fundraiser
run. fish. beer. fundraise!
Event Fundraising Goal: $10,000 Campaign
Tax ID: 81-1625829
At Running Rivers, we are a Colorado-based 501c3 organization which firmly believes that the best way to ensure the preservation, protection, and maintenance of our irreplaceable public lands and waters is to develop and foster the stewards who will stand up in their defense. Our programs create unique opportunities for people to experience public lands and waters in novel and fun ways, to expand their depth of understanding of the importance of healthy functioning freshwater ecosystems, and to invest in their time, money, and sweat through on-the-ground stewardship projects. NASCARP is a unique, conservation-minded relay race event that integrates three of the West's greatest activities; trail running, fly-fishing, and craft beer.
The inaugural NASCARP- Davis Pond Cup will take place on June 1st, 2024 at fan favorite Staunton State Park, about a 40 minute drive from Denver. Laps will be just over a mile each, the Davis Pond will have been recently stocked with 10-12" rainbow trout, and the stoke will be high. For more details about NASCARP and the Davis Ponds course, please visit this link.
Aside from creating a fun team Flyathlon environment, we are raising money for native fish conservation with our NASCARP events. We have asked our NASCARP teams to commit to recruiting "team sponsors" and hitting a minimum fundraising threshold, in part through those sponsorships. We envision that our teams will have great fun with this portion of the event by creating team-specific sponsor-emblazoned NASCARP-style pit shirts. We also welcome donations from individuals wanting to support a specific NASCARP team!
We will be raising money through our Colorado-based 501(c)(3) organization, Running Rivers. Since 2014, our Flyathlon events have raised more than $650,000 for native trout related projects completed through our diverse conservation partners, including Colorado Trout Unlimited, the Western Native Trout Initiative, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the National Park Service, and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.

Now is a critical time to invest in the preservation of our public lands and waters. Because Running Rivers is a recognized 501c3 organization, your donations are tax deductible.
