Point to Point Challenges
A Dawgpatch Challenge involves getting from location ‘A’ to location ‘B’ (point to point). Unlike traditional events that adapt a predetermined mode of travel into a region, we allow the geographical area itself to produce new and innovative challenges.
Our Approach
We approach our nonprofit work with many of the same philosophies we bring to our physical challenges. First, we establish an area of focus in which we can have a direct impact. Second, we map out a plan of how the Dawgpatch Bandits can get involved, and create actionable change. Third, and most importantly, we execute the plan established.
Why We Do It
We believe that the health of the community and the individual are one. By creating a community that inspires positive action, ambition, and creativity, the individual can do the same.
“The idea is to push individuals towards gaining a greater knowledge and understanding of their own physical and mental capabilities, and to combat barriers that may hinder that pursuit.” — Drew Harvey, Dawgpatch Bandits Founder
