Description

Like the TV show, teams of 2 race around Buffalo on foot or NFTA rails, doing challenges that are mental, physical, silly and mission orientated, competing for a first prize of $1,000.  There are prizes for top fundraising teams also.  Teams must raise $250 to participate.  Axe throwing, zip lines, kayaking, rock wall climbing, mental word search puzzles, belly dancing and life size corn hole tossing are some of the things teams have done in the past.

Register your team on line at www.BuffaloSalvationArmy.org and start your fundraising.  Day of event registration begins at 8am, with the race starting at 9.  There will be approximately 12 challenges, with a 12:00 - 1:00 finish line.  Post party for all racers and their supporters immediately following.

All proceeds benefit The Salvation Army, Buffalo Area Services - providing food, clothing, shelter and supportive programs for those in need without discrimination.
