Fundraising is a great way of engaging the wider business and motivating your team at the event, however it is at the individual team’s discretion.

DO WE HAVE TO BRING A SENIOR EXECUTIVE ALONG?

You don’t have to, however we have designed a senior executive stage for networking. Not only that but this is a great opportunity for them to experience the event for themselves, get to know employees they may not know, learn about the company and of course see how awesome their teams are!

One that is capable of carrying all 6 (or 7) team members and equipment comfortably. (nb. there is a limit of 1 vehicle per team on stage)

However, it is suggested that team members should be capable of comfortably covering a distance of 10km on foot and/or 15km by bike. There will be waterbased activity such as canoeing, but most of all teams should be prepared for long days and challenging missions.

WHAT ARE THE FINAL DEADLINES FOR TEAM SELECTION?

We ask that you have your final team selection confirmed 6 weeks before the event.
