Tour de Junction
Join us for an EPIC race for our 9th Anniversary Party! This year, starting at 10am, we will be hosting Tour de Junction: a three person team event for all ages and abilities! Teams need to register in advance with a creative team name and when they show up for their 30 minute timeslot, various challenges will be available to attempt as a group. Some of the many challenges will include specialty routes or boulder problems while others will be various non-climbing related activities. Each challenge is worth different points depending on estimated time to complete vs. difficulty. Teams must decide which challenges they think are more worth completing as all will not be able to be accomplished within 30 minutes. Teams MUST NOT split up and therefore complete all challenges as a unit.
Themed bike-related costumes will also earn bonus points. Winning teams of each heat will receive prizes as well as the overall winning team!
Don't wait to sign up as slots will go fast! Cost is $15/incl. tax per team with 100% of the proceeds being donated to Camp Trillium. Grab your friends and click the ticket link to register: www.tinyurl.com/tour-de-junction
