2026 Rafting for Wishes

Rafting for Wishes is a relay-style, fundraising event held in Meredith Bay and on-land at Hesky Park in Meredith. The event is a 24-hour, jam-packed, super fun, on the water fundraiser that is open to the public. We are always looking for new community members to participate in this event, whether it's creating a team, joining a team or volunteering throughout the weekend. This year, we are celebrating our 16th year on the rafts! We will once again have two ways for you to participate. Participants can choose to take the 24-hour challenge in Meredith Bay or they can choose to support the event at a location of their choosing, for 8 hours.

All teams, whether virtual or participating in Meredith are welcome and encouraged to join us for our Opening Ceremony on Friday, July 17th at 3:30pm and our Closing Ceremony on Saturday, July 18th at 3:30pm in Meredith Bay and on land at Hesky Park.
