2023 is wrapping up in just a couple of weeks. The team at PORCA took a moment to catch their breaths and share some of the numbers they’re proud of this year.

End of year recaps where individuals brag about how they’re winning at life are hard to take, sometimes… especially if you’re having a “lost in the wilderness” moment. But hearing from our community groups, as to where they put their energy and how much they’re doing to help bring us together, is something I can get behind. Less I, more We. Right?

Bravo to the PORCA team. What other groups have got some highlights to share?

851 Members and 50% are female. Out of that, 172 are youth.

Mountain bikers have contributed $13,000 to Pemberton Valley Trails Association through membership fees. Teamwork!

They hosted 2 Enduro races, a 30×30 Day Bike Challenge, the Pemby Fifty Challenge, 8 Toonie rides, 15 Women’s Bike Club nights, 2 Social rides, 4 Trail Maintenance events, a Movie night and a Halloween Ride.

Over 1000 volunteer hours were clocked and $10,000 raised to support partner community organizations.

They coached 100 individual youth sessions which is equivalent to 3,000 hours of activity!

And so much more!
