About Spring Sprockets

What is Spring Sprockets & Walk-Its?

It's a scavenger hunt scramble event for mountain bikers, gravel bikers and walkers of all ages and levels in Pine Hill Park. The family-friendly event runs from 10am to noon and benefits the Homeless Prevention Center. This year (our fifth) we’ll have music, ice cream, prizes, and plenty of other surprises! This is a rain and shine event.

So, what IS the scavenger hunt scramble exactly?

Bikers head up onto the network of mountain bike trails at Pine Hill Park while walkers and joggers explore the walking loops and nature activities on the adjacent Giorgetti trails. Somewhere along both routes are pails for participants to find and put their chips in. (You get your chips at the registration table.) Everyone meets back up at the Giorgetti lot where chips are drawn for prizes.

But I Loooove walking and riding, can I do more?

You bet! Before and after the scrambles and prizes, folks will be riding and walking the trails just for the fun of it. Bring friends to walk or ride with, or make new ones on these fantastic trails. If you want to support this event but don't feel like riding or walking that day, no worries, we'll have the best DJ in South Central Vermont spinning tunes at home base in the Giorgetti lot. Also make-your-own sundaes courtesy of Stewarts Shops.

This year’s generous sponsors allow us to offer big discounts on registration fees.

Adults $15 / Youth $7 / Kids $3
