This is a community-building event! The primary goal of this event is to gather as many people as possible to build relationships and engage in healthy activities. We will work as a team to put on the event and to create a positive, team-focused event where everyone cheers for everyone!

This is a family-friendly event! Our hope is that people of all ages can successfully participate in a safe, supportive environment. Participants can compete individually or work together as a relay or team (typically to paddle a canoe). These options allow people to work together to ensure that everyone can do their best and be successful!

This event is an equitable opportunity! We have worked to keep the price of the race low to allow as many people to participate as possible. Events like this can often become expensive due to the cost of watercraft, bikes, hotel rooms, and restaurants. We are offering watercraft and bikes for people to use. We have also scheduled the event during the afternoon so that people can easily travel to and from the event in one day. Finally, the LuWow will follow the Adventure-a-Thon with delicious food available free of charge. (But feel free to donate to our cause:)

This is a fun event! There will be elements of fun incorporated into the race! You might just find out that you have to wear a Hawaiian lei on the homestretch of the run…

This is an event that supports a meaningful cause! All proceeds of this event will go to supporting the vision and mission of Clearwater Forest Camp and Retreat Center. Clearwater Forest provides beautiful natural space for anyone to get away from the fray of daily life. It also offers a wide variety of programs for people of all ages. Clearwater Forest provides spaces for building community, such as lodges, cabins, and campgrounds to rent for family reunions, church events, or any group gathering. Clearwater strives to be a wise and faithful steward of financial, relational, and physical resources.
