Twenty-Five years ago Rick Hansen kicked off the Man in Motion. Now the Comox Valley is building off this to launch the first Comox Valley Amazing Race.
The adventure will include participants in teams of two racing around the Comox Valley completing tasks, much like those found on the popular Emmy Award winning Television program. Teams must consist of at least one individual in a wheelchair or with a simulated disability.
To compete a requirement of at least $100 in donations is necessary along with their online registration. The event is set to raise funds to help those affected by spinal cord injuries and other disabilities.
The event takes place on Saturday June 19 from 2 to 4pm.
