Are You Up to the Challenge!
TeamMS needs You.
Become
a Leader. Recruit a Team.
Help make a difference in the fight
to end MS.
There’s
no better way to experience the satisfaction of completing
one of our events than as a team. As thousands of participants
across BC will tell you, so much more can be achieved through
teamwork!
Teams raise more money and teams have more
fun. In 2007, 68% of BC Bike & WALK participants were
on a team and were responsible for raising more than 70%
of the total funds! All funds that keep the hope of a cure
for MS alive and provide services to the more 8,000 British
Columbians affected by MS.

Volunteers can join TeamMS too!
Are you or
someone you know interested in being part of this event but can’t cycle or walk? Or
have you participated for many years but feel you might need an extra
challenge this year?
Not only
can Bike and WALK participants create teams, but volunteers can too! Frriends, family, and co-workers can volunteer and join your team.
An official
team consists of a Team Captain and 3 (or more) members. Your
team can be made up of both participants and volunteers – anyone
who registers and raises the minimum pledge for that event. A team
member can even be both participant and volunteer at the same time!
It’s a great way to have fun and support a great cause to the
maximum of your ability.
When registering
for an event as a fundraising volunteer on a team, please follow
the usual registration steps and then contact the TeamMS Coordinator for your event:
