ABOUT
THE PACIFIC CREST WEEKEND SPORT FEST Each year, during the last weekend in June,
athletes, joined by their family and friends, converge
on Central Oregon to take part in the Pacific Crest
Sports Festival. The Pacific Crest is known as the jewel
of multi-sport events in the Northwest and has become
a destination race for athletes from across the nation
as well as internationally.
The Pacific Crest Weekend begins on Friday morning,
and the Celebration continues through Sunday. The weekend
will include a Health & Fitness Expo, great food,
beer garden, live entertainment, fun, camaraderie,
and to top it off, some of the best competitive racing
you will find in the country.

in Central Oregon.
The 2013 Pacific Crest Weekend is proud to benefit
and host the following charities and special groups.
Please join us in supporting their causes by contacting
them directly!
• The Cole William Larsen Foundation, supporting
families of our fallen and wounded military heroes http://www.memorialgardentour.com
• Legs for Lauren - Legs For Lauren raises funds
for Northwest children’s cancer care through
participation in triathlon, running and other endurance
events. The 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation was founded
by the uncle of a cancer survivor – a brave little
girl who in 2008, at age 3, successfully fought through
a rare form of ovarian cancer, surgeries, and radiation
treatments. Lauren became an inspiration to carry
forward our support to those kids facing a similar
fight. In 2009, Legs For Lauren became a Seattle Childrens
Hospital “Research Champion” with its first
major gift. That’s what we race for. What do
YOU race for? http://www.legsforlauren.org
