Chocolate Tour
2013 CHOCOLATE TOUR
The 3rd Annual Chocolate Tour, to raise awareness about the disease and to raise funds, to support cancer research at Penn State, to find the cure, will take place on Saturday, August 24, 2013 on the campus of the Milton Hershey School. With exciting events like the Relay Half Marathon team event; 6 mile walk and run/race events and 8, 35, 65 and 100 mile cycling events, there is something for everyone. With rest stops every mile, runners and walkers will be able to enjoy local chocolate from our area.
