Children aged 8-14 are to enter in teams of up to 8(and minimum of 4)to compete in the adventure race. Teams can be of mixed age and gender. We recommend that the team help each other round the course, working together.

All we ask is that children wear suitable shoes such as trainers or boots and some older clothing which keeps them warm and dry, which you don’t mind getting MUDDY!!!!

Tickets cost £5 per child, this includes entrance and race participation; teas, coffees and juices which will be available from 12.30pm onwards, and soup and a roll offered to participants provided by Bonaly's catering staff, will be available from 3pm onwards. So no need for a packed lunch!

We can provide sponsorship forms to any children who are interested in raising money which they will bring along with them on the day with their funds and form. Any contributions towards our charity would be greatly appreciated, even buying a ticket will help to raise money so we hope you consider coming to our event.
