Ray Whalen Builders Tour of Lake Ellyn
Saturday July 19, 10 a.m. - 8 p.m.
Join the fast-paced bicycling action around the stunning Lake Ellyn course at the Ray Whalen Builders Tour of Lake Ellyn as a spectator, participant, or volunteer. The Tour of Lake Ellyn is the Pantry's largest summer fundraiser, significantly contributing to our mission to Make Hunger History.
This event is part of Chicago Grit, formerly known as Intelligentsia Cup, a thrilling 10-day criterium bike race series held annually in Chicagoland. With tight corners and high-speed pelotons, the action is non-stop, akin to NASCAR on a bike.
Register to be a course marshall and see all the action up close!
