Frontier Adventure Challenge
Deerhurst Resort
Huntsville, ON
Saturday May 5, 2007

Ahhh, this one's going to be FUN...

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.

Grab two friends or strangers, and join us on Saturday, May 5 to kick off the adventure racing season, as we aim to show you some of the best landscapes off the beaten path in the Frontier Adventure Challenge - Huntsville.

This race weekend will have a festival atmosphere with the Sault College Adventure Challenge happening on Sunday, May 6. Hundreds of high school students from across the province will be helping with the race on Saturday, and preparing for their adventure on Sunday.
