The 54321 Challenge
Teams of 5 People over 4 Days doing 3 Cycles and 2 Mountains for 1 Cause
This year saw the 54321 Challenge enter its 7th year and took place between Thursday August 22nd and Sunday August 25th.
We had eight teams of five people to take part in this epic challenge to raise much needed money to support three very deserving Kerry charities; The Kerry Hospice, The Skellig Stars & Dingle Cliff and Coast Rescue.
We will be presenting a cheque for the total amount raised to the 3 chosen charities on Saturday 2nd November at the Victoria House Hotel at 8pm.
Last year the challenge raised €42,456 for The Skellig Stars (children and adult athletes with special needs), Sera Husky (Animal Rescue) and GROW (World Community Mental Health Movement in Ireland), and in the 7 years of running we have raised over €140,000 to date for various Kerry charities.
