The Flatlander is a benefit for MCC and part of the registration fee will support a partnership to build simple but efficient and sustainable water systems for farm families in Columbia who have been displaced by decades of armed conflict.

Additional contributions collected by riders are encouraged, with a $60 gift certificate for the rider or family who raises the most money, and a $40 gift certificate for the 2nd highest contributor.
