Team spirit at the Great Manitoba Portage
May 01, 2015
Oak Bluff West, get out there and show ‘em what you’ve got! This month your friends and family can register as a team of six for the Great Manitoba Portage, a Survivor-esque relay in support of Manitoba Camping Association’s Sunshine Fund.
You’ll be taking part in a series of team activities that get your brain and body working. The first team to complete the activities and portage a canoe over the Esplanade Riel Bridge wins (but there are plenty of prizes for everyone!).
It’s a great chance to have some fun outside and help support the organization with their goal of sending more than 1,000 kids to camp this summer.
For detailed information, see below:
Every child deserves to go to camp; the Sunshine Fund makes this happen!
The Sunshine Fund is part of the Manitoba Camping Association - a registered charity that provides less fortunate children the opportunity to attend an accredited summer camp.
Each year we send 750 deserving kids to summer camp. Help us to reach our goal of 1000 kids to camp this summer!
