Frontier Adventure Challenge
Deerhurst Resort, Huntsville, ON
Saturday May 3, 2008

REGISTRATION NOW OPEN

Start your summer adventure season with this high-energy spring race weekend...


For many, the Muskoka Region conjures up fond childhood memories like first camping trips, learning how to paddle a canoe, and seeing a moose for the first time. It is a magnificent landscape that holds a very special place in the hearts of all Eastern Canadian outdoor enthusiasts.

Now, experience Muskoka with more adrenaline under your skin! Grab two friends or strangers, and join us on Saturday, May 3 to kick off your summer adventure racing season, as we take you off the beaten path in the Frontier Adventure Challenge - Huntsville.

TWO RACES - ONE WEEKEND This race weekend will have a festive atmosphere with the High School Adventure Challenge happening on Sunday, May 4. Hundreds of high school students from across the province will be volunteering for the Saturday race, taking sport clinics, preparing for their adventure on Sunday, and looking to your team for inspiration.

MAKE IT A WEEKEND: Why rush home? Stay for the post-race awards and party. Get a great deal on a condo at Deerhurst. Book a spa treatment. Help with the High School race on Sunday. And by all means, help us make the Sunday finish line rowdy!
