With the Island Triathlon Series came the birth of its signature fundraising initiative,
“Tri4Dignity™,” which provides athletes with an opportunity to achieve a personal goal
while also raising funds and awareness for Dignitas International – a global, medical, and
humanitarian organization focused on HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention.
The 40 islands of the Turks & Caicos, of which eight are inhabited, are renowned for
their award-winning beaches, diving and array of world-class resorts. Additional
activities include tennis, golf and horseback riding. There are three daily 90-minute direct
flights from Miami, a US Airways direct flight from Charlotte and daily flights from New
York. www.turksandcaicostourism.com |
