Whacky charity fund raiser the Snow Camp Rally is back in 2013 with teams racing between the five indoor snow centres in England to raise money for charity Snow Camp.
This year the 12 hour epic, described by Ed Leigh as, “the closest thing you’ll get to the Gumball Rally in the UK”, will begin at The Snow Centre, Hemel Hempstead with skiing and boarding before hitting the road to the Milton Keynes Sno!Zone, then on to the Castleford Sno!Zone, and next Chillfactore, Manchester before the final 30 minutes in the Snowdome, Tamworth.
This year there’s a new twist as teams will arrive around 6pm at the new In The Snow Live, Birmingham NEC Arena
Taking place on Friday 25th October 2013, teams of four must ride as many runs as possible at each centre, with almost 350 miles of tarmac to cover between centres and 30 minutes maximum at each slope to ride as many runs as possible. Each team must commit to raising £1000 between them and prizes are awarded in various categories.
The contest is limited to 20 teams and information on registering can be found at: www.snow-camp.org.uk/rally
Snow-Camp is an innovative youth charity that uses a unique combination of skiing, snowboarding and life-skills programmes to support inner-city young people.
“Through the combination of snowsports and life-skills, our programmes enable young people to grow in confidence and self esteem, develop as individuals and make positive choices for their lives,” says the charity.
