Get Involved
Are you a warrior against hunger, or just a warrior, a giver, maybe an opportunist or a helpful padawan? Well if you are any of those, or maybe none of them, we still want you on board. Join this year's Big Wheel Race and learn how much fun giving back can be.
Behind the Wheel
Individual Races--$100 fundraising minimum
Do you have what it takes to brave the track and join the race to end hunger? The Big Wheel Race is your chance to show us what you're made.
The top 10 fundraisers will compete in a final race for our grand prize to be announced.
Teams--$100 fundraising minimum per racer
After registering as an individual, create or join a team to start pooling your fundraising efforts. You will still need to raise $100 per person to qualify for the race, but raising money is always more fun with friends. So get creative, come up with a great team name and start building your fundraising army.
What's in it for you? The team that raises the MOST money will not only take the trophy, but they will win a night at the Tulsa Drillers Suite for 20 people, including an awesome view and delicious food.
Corporate Racers--$500
This year, the Big Wheel Race gives you the perfect shot at showing your workplace pride to win the ultimate bragging rights. Corporations can register a racer for $500—then find or build the best big wheel they can get their hands on, place their brand all over their ride and show this town who's boss.
The winner of the corporate race will not only take the trophy,
but they will also win a night at the Tulsa Drillers Suite,
August 21, 2011.
