On Friday, July 28 from 4-7 p.m. at San Diego Oasis’ Grossmont Center location in La Mesa, the nonprofit will host its first-ever “Team on a Trek” fundraiser. San Diego Oasis is located at 5500 Grossmont Center Drive.
During the inaugural three-hour event, teams of two to six individuals will participate in a series of fun challenges at various stations throughout Grossmont Center.
Advance registration to participate in the fundraiser is required and available at SanDiegoOasis.org through July 14. Cost to register a team is $150.
“Team on a Trek” could be a great summer bonding event for local businesses, a fun family outing, a double date or even a first date.
The surprise challenges will be varied from silly to savvy and may include activities like line dancing, answering questions on current events, and more. Teams are also encouraged to dress in creative costumes or matching attire. All proceeds from “Team on a Trek” will support San Diego Oasis’ mission to change the way people experience and think about aging.
“We’re very excited to bring together individuals of all ages for an afternoon of fun and fundraising in support of the San Diego Oasis mission,” said Event Chair and San Diego Oasis Board Member, Tracey Stotz. “The challenge stations throughout Grossmont Center showcase some of the classes that San Diego Oasis offers. From challenges that may involve foreign language and poetry to dance and technology, ‘Team on a Trek’ will have something everyone will enjoy.”
At event check-in, each team will receive a passport to collect stamps when they complete a challenge.
The stamps will then be exchanged for raffle tickets that will be drawn for various prizes.
In addition to the activities, participants will also enjoy live music by the Off The Hook Band and an array of free snacks.
The afternoon event will culminate with awards, including “Best Dressed,” “Best Team Name” and more.
“Whether it’s for a summer team retreat, a family outing, a double date, or even a first date, we encourage anyone and everyone to sign up to participate in the inaugural ‘Team on a Trek’ fundraiser to support San Diego Oasis’ mission and members. We’re thankful to all our volunteers and community partners for their support.”
