On June 1, 2024, we ran, walked, biked, and had fun at the Alternatives' Whitin Mill (50 Douglas Road, Whitinsville, MA) while raising funds for Open Sky's programs.

Thank you to everyone who participated and we hope to see you again next year!

New to VFT? Here's what you need to know!

Walk, jog or ride throughout the Blackstone Valley on one of three non-competitive routes:

  • 30-Mile cycling route (9am)

  • 5K walk/run (10am)

  • Golden Mile walk (11am)

The variety of routes means that people of all ages and abilities, those with and without disabilities or mental health challenges, are able to come together as equal participants.

All routes begin and end at the Alternatives' Whitin Mill, 50 Douglas Road, Whitinsville, MA. 

Fun for everyone:

  • lunch

  • live music

  • entertainment

  • raffles

  • family-friendly activities

All proceeds from the Tour fund essential programs at Open Sky serving individuals with complex challenges such as mental health, intellectual/developmental disabilities, and homelessness.

By coming together with others, sponsors and participants are helping to ensure the youth, young adults, and families Open Sky serves will have the support they need to lead fulfilling lives.

Together we raised over $117,000!
