4 and 10 Hour Adventure Race Weekend
The Catherine Adventure Race Extravaganza is a three-day event with beginner clinics on Friday with a huge pre-race dinner, with 4 and 10-hour adventure races on Saturday followed up with a party, beer, and food truck. Camping is available to all teams from Friday through Sunday at the race start in DeLand, Florida. We have rented the entire campground and the surrounding areas, so it's all for us. Come and celebrate the wonderful life of Catherine Eaglin by honoring her memory, doing what she loved so much. A portion of the proceeds will be going to help grieving children who have lost a parent.
