After thoughtful consideration, the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville (BGCN) has decided to postpone the annual Bed Race until 2025.
“Although postponing the 2024 Bed Race isn’t our ideal scenario, it was the right call to make this year,” BGCN Director of Club Operations Abby Stutesman said. “Our leadership decided that pivoting to a virtual cause campaign would still allow the community the opportunity to support youth scholarships in the spirit of the Bed Race.”
BGCN and the city of Noblesville are teaming up to wave the green flag to get summer started for kids. Summer is a time where kids just get to be kids, and they deserve that. But many need financial assistance to attend safe, fun, and engaging programs – which the Bed Race has been able to provide for the past decade.
While there may not be hundreds of onlookers lining 9th Street this year to cheer on their favorite team or favorite bed, there is still the opportunity to invest in the youth in the Noblesville community through a virtual fundraising campaign – the Race Past the Construction Campaign.
“Noblesville has a well-earned reputation as a community that steps up and supports neighbors in times of need – whether that is making sure kids have resources to attend summer camps and educational programs, or supporting our businesses during construction challenges,” Noblesville Deputy Mayor Matt Light said. “The city is honored to partner with BGCN to support this fundraising effort and its mission of serving our kids and our community.”
