Arnold – UP Pink Power 17-Mile Walk Fundraiser
April 26 @ 10:00 am
17-Mile Walk from Knotty Pine to Up North Lodge to Benefit UP Pink Power
On Saturday, April 26th, 2025, join us for a 17-mile walk from the Knotty Pine to the Up North Lodge to support UP Pink Power, a dedicated organization focused on helping residents of the Upper Michigan with catastrophic events in their life.
Participants will embark on a 17-mile walk that will include over 25 pit stops and a lunch at the half way point, united in the cause of raising awareness and funds for UP Pink Power. All proceeds from the walk will go directly to UP Pink Power’s assistance for local families in need during treatment or tragedy.
Registration for the event will be held on Friday, April 25th from 5:00 – 7:00 PM at the Up North Lodge and Knotty Pine, and the morning of the walk from 8:00 – 9:15 AM at the Knotty Pine. Participants who raise at least $100 will receive a walk t-shirt. There are bonus prizes for those who raise more.
The walk will start at Knotty Pine at 10:00 AM, with participants making their way to the Up North Lodge Event Center for a celebratory finish that will include a DJ, spaghetti dinner and cash bar. Refreshments and snacks will be available along the route, ensuring walkers stay energized and hydrated.
“This walk represents so much more than just a physical challenge—it’s an opportunity for the Upper Peninsula community to come together and show our support for those affected by tragedy,” said Erin Sorensen, a Board Member of UP Pink Power. “Every step taken, every dollar raised, brings us closer to
ensuring that no Yoopers face their challenges alone.”
See the UP Pink Power website for additional information, morning of the walk bus transportation information, and walk pledge forms.
