Tour de Cure Update

Last month, we announced that members of Team Munzee would be participating in the DFW Tour de Cure to raise funds and awareness for diabetes. Since then, we’ve also announced MunzFit 2.0 events (as well as MunzFit 2.0 apparel) that will launch at the end of MHQ Bash and run through Tour de Cure. We’re a month out from the Tour de Cure, and we’ve got a few updates.

Munzee

Our Munzee event for Tour de Cure will have a special badge and icon that can be earned. We know everyone isn’t able to make it, but if you can, we’d be happy to see you. You can join our team, come out to cheer us on, or help us raise funds for the American Diabetes Association by donating to our team. If you do join us, we’ll have a Team Munzee tent that we will use as a meeting point.

Eventzee

Eventzee will be partnering with Tour de Cure for a special hunt! We’re currently working with the American Diabetes Association and Tour de Cure to finalize plans, so keep an eye out for more information.

If you haven’t put a MunzFit event on the calendar yet, you still have time! Don’t miss out!

Munzee on!

MunzFit 2.0 and Team Munzee Cycling Apparel

Team Munzee is gearing up for the Tour de Cure and MunzFit 2.0 events, and we want you to get in on the action, too! We know not everyone can be there, but you can sport the apparel we do. We’ll be wearing custom cycling jerseys for Tour de Cure, and we’ve created shirts based on their design.

We’ve also added MunzFit 2.0 shirts, tank tops, zip-up hoodies, pullover hoodies, and baseball tees!

And last, but not least, we’ve added a Munzee #MunzFit sports bra! This item is brought to you in partnership with DBA Sports, a sponsor of our cycling queen Louise. These are available NOW in multiple sizes!

You can find all of these products in the Munzee Online Store!

Don’t forget, you can put your MunzFit 2.0 event on the Munzee Calendar now!

Munzee on!

Team Munzee to Participate in Tour de Cure!

Last year, we introduced MunzFit as part of our March fundraiser for Skylar, the MDA, and the MNDA. MunzFit events were meant as a way to get our community (and our team) active while playing Munzee. We’ve continued to push ourselves to be more active in our daily lives since then, and now, we’re making another push.

On October 14th, members of Team Munzee will be participating in the American Diabetes Association’s 2017 DFW Tour de Cure. This event consists of a 5k walk/run or cycling up to 62 miles to raise funds and awareness for diabetes. Many members of the team have been directly affected by diabetes, whether it be by friends, family, or personal battles, and a few have taken part in a Tour de Cure event in the past.

We’d like to invite any Munzee community members to join us in our endeavor by participating, donating, or just cheering us on. If you would like to join our team or make a donation, you can follow this link to our Team Page. (Please read all of the information and requirements before signing up to participate.) If you would like to come cheer us on, we’ll be hosting an event of sorts. It is on the Munzee Calendar, and more information will be coming soon.

We’ve also created a Team Munzee cycling club on Strava (a running and cycling tracking social network). If you’d like to join, you can find us here.

Limited quantities of merchandise based on our custom jerseys will be available in the Munzee Online Store soon, but here’s a sneak peak.

The Tour de Cure is just part of what we have planned for the upcoming months, so keep an eye out for some more exciting announcements.

Munzee on!

MunzFit 2016!

As we’ve said before, Munzee has been working with multiple organizations to donate money from the March fundraisers. While we’ve been working with MDA and Skylar directly, we’ve been working with another organization to help provide support for MNDA. We’re now ready to release information and introduce MunzFit 2016!

Rave & Ride is a 300+ person indoor cycling event organized by Steven Smith that raises funds for the MND Association in honor of his mother, Genifer, who passed away from MND. The event will be hosted at Stoke Park in the UK and see individuals and teams of indoor cyclists come together for an all-day sponsored ride with club music provided by live DJs. There is also the possibility of two world records being broken due to the scale of the event and the number of members expected to take part. Steven has already raised £115,000 for the MND Association through several events, and he is hoping the Rave and Ride event will push that amount over £160,000. You can learn more about the Rave and Ride event here.

Munzee will be involved in two ways. First, we will be making a donation to Rave and Ride during the event on May 14th, 2016. Rob and Matt will be traveling to the UK to meet up with Louise and present the donation to Steven. We didn’t want to stop there, though. While Louise is already participating in the event, Rob and Matt wanted to show their support for the cause and ride as well. They will be teaming up with Team DBA and DBA Sports (one of Louise’s riding sponsors) to ride during the event.

Rave & Ride is also the launching point for MunzFit 2016. From May 6th-15th, we will be having MunzFit events. We want to get as many people as possible involved, so we will be offering a MunzFit package.

For $100, a MunzFit Event includes:

The MunzFit Badge with editable text and flag (see below)
50 Event Pins (more information regarding these to follow)
10 Flat Robs
10 MVMs
No proximity rules for non-Event Pins
Prizes for all attendees from Secret Steven

Examples of the MunzFit Badge include:

Rob, Matt, and Louise will also be hosting a Munzee Event on Friday, May 13th, so check out the calendar!

We also have MunzFit apparel available on the Munzee Store where you can write in the name or place of your event!

We hope to see everyone getting out and active! Munzee on!
