Røykenmila

Description

Røykenmila is a race that wants to create value in the local community, and is an activity day for the whole family and has 3 goals:

1. Create a party day for everyone together with businesses and local associations.

2. To motivate people to start training.

3. To raise money that can be distributed to good causes in the local community.

Røykenmila is accepting applications for projects that will benefit the general public for 2025. Any remaining profits will be distributed to local teams and associations that contribute on Røykenmila Day.

Welcome, friends of Røykenmila!
