Races can vary from 2 to 5 person teams with some events also offering solo categories. Disciplines vary from race to race. Participants may find themselves participating in mountain biking, orienteering, a mystery event, mind teasers or canoeing. Join us for our 2nd Annual Arbor Day Adventure Race.
