Description
The F3 Aggieland Food Ruck is a food drive and fundraiser in support of the Brazos Valley Food Bank. Our mission is to increase awareness of hunger and food insecurity all around us in the Brazos Valley.
This ~3.5 Mile Ruck will take place on Wednesday, December 4, 2024, the same day as the KBTX Food for Families Food Drive benefiting the Brazos Valley Food Bank. The Ruck will begin at Veteran’s Park in College Station and will consist of carrying 25 pounds (minimum) of non-perishable food to turn in for the Food Drive at the Brazos Center in Bryan.
What Am I Paying For?
Your $25 registration fee goes towards the purchase of a t-shirt* plus the cost of the prizes, awards and refreshments for the day of the Ruck. All leftover proceeds will be donated directly to the Brazos Vally Food Bank.
*You must register and provide a size for a T-shirt by November 14, 2024 in order to guarantee yourself a shirt.
Donated Food Requirement
All ruck participants are responsible for bringing their own food to be donated following the ruck. A minimum of 25 pounds of food should be carried from the start to finish in order to receive a raffle ticket. When participants arrive at the race to register, their rucksacks/backpacks/dufflebags, etc will be weighed-in. Participants are encouraged to solicit friends, family, co-workers and neighbors for food donations in order to increase awareness of the food drive.
