A course that promises thrills for adventurous kids and teens

Do you have kids between the ages of 8 and 16? Encourage them to take part in the Grand Blizzard, an activity where you can move and challenge yourself. They’ll have to run, crawl, climb and make their way across this course of snow, tires, tunnels and structures of all kinds! Each race will be timed, and the fastest will become the day’s record to beat. A prize will be awarded to the winner at the end of this thrilling day!
