65 Roses Challenge

65 Roses Challenge
A Day of Games, Team Spirit and Impact!
Grab your coworkers, friends, and family and join us for our inaugural 65 Roses Challenge, a field day style event where teams compete in fun, active games while raising critical funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
What to Expect:
• Classic field day Games with a competitive twist (e.g., kickball, cornhole, tug of war, relay races, balloon toss and more)
• Points earned through games and fundraising
• Prizes for top teams and standout individuals
• Food, music, friendly rivalry and a great cause
Whether you're in it to win or just have fun, every step you take helps us get closer to a cure for cystic fibrosis, which is a progressive, genetic disease that affects the lungs and other organs. The funds you raise will drive forward research, care and ultimately a cure.
Event Details:
The Challenge will be held on Saturday, October 4th on the athletic fields of Cedar Crest College.
Registration opens at 8am | Opening Ceremony at 9am | Games Begin Immediately after
Corporate, Family and Community teams are all welcome! Ideally, you will want 10 or more teammates for the competition day. If you want to participate but your group is too small, please register and reach out. We are happy to combine small teams and individuals together, so no one misses out on the fun!
Your Road to becoming 65 Roses Challenge Champions:
Follow the four R's to earn your way to the top: Register, Recruit, Raise, and Race!
More details on scoring will be shared closer to event day, but here's an overview: points are awarded to the top finishers in each competition. Plus, your team's fundraising total is a competition of its own, worth double points toward your final score.
Every dollar you raise directly supports the cystic fibrosis community through research, care, and advocacy. After registering, you'll get access to helpful tools and resources to help your team hit its goals.
Prizes and awards will be up for grabs, so get ready to compete and make a difference!
Registration & Fundraising Information:
Summer Special: Register by 8/24 to receive a discounted entry fee! Open to participants ages 16 and up.
A $100 minimum fundraising commitment is required (and gets you a T-shirt!).
All teams must be registered by 9/29/25.
Please reach out to Jillian Hunsicker, Senior Development Director, at jhunsicker@cff.org or 717-271-7203 with any questions.
