Friends of Blackwater once again invites you to join Georgena Terry, along with hundreds of other active women bicyclists, for the Eighth Annual Wild Goose Chase Women’s Bike Tour, on Sunday, May 15, 2016, with exciting pre-ride activities on Saturday May 14.
The Wild Goose Chase is a bicycle weekend for women, based in Cambridge on Maryland's scenic Eastern Shore, taking place in and around the spectacular Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge.
Enjoy flat roads, little traffic, and pristine salt-marshes offering protection for migratory waterfowl in the Chesapeake Bay region. Georgena started the Wild Goose Chase in 2008, as a fundraiser to help protect the Refuge. The Wild Goose Chase has generated more than $150,000 for the Friends of Blackwater. Your participation in the 2016 event will help the Friends of Blackwater continue to protect this critical habitat.
