WEDNESDAY, 23 JULY 2008
Submitted By: Diane Vee Hormillada

Twelve mountaineers are set to climb the 14,505-foot Mount Whitney in California this coming August 3 as part of the One Wild Challenge, a fundraising event that will benefit Tulsa Zoo's Nature Exchange program.

At the One Wild Challenge, each mountaineer will raise $5,000. With the help from the sponsors, $3,500 will go directly to the Nature Exchange program. The event sponsors include World Travel Science, Saint Francis Health Zone, New Heights Rock Gym, Sun and Ski, The North Face, Black Diamond, and the Blue Frog Interactive.

The main objective of the Nature Exchange program is to provide a place where children can learn about nature and form a connection to the wildlife.
