1. 5KM FOAM FEST COMING TO TORONTO AREA
SATURDAY JULY 16, 2016
Dagmar Resort – Uxbridge Ontario – Durham Region
Toronto, Ontario, June 20, 2016:
Have you ever wondered about those mudders, spartans and warriors that trek off for
adventurous weekends to compete on endurance courses?
Hello Greater Toronto Area! You can learn what obstacle course racing is all about but in a
fun way. And, in this case, with foam. This summer, 5K Foam Fest is heading to Dagmar
Resort in Uxbridge, Saturday July 16th. Join the action-packed fitness experience on a 5K
obstacle course challenging yourself personally and having fun with friends and family. 5K
Foam Fest will give you a non-competitive obstacle course experience, suited for participation
by the whole family. Participants eight-years old and up are welcome come out and
experience this unique and fun-oriented 5K obstacle course run.
The 5K Foam Fest is not hardcore. It is funcore. It is a festival atmosphere with over twenty
obstacles to challenge you but not break you. Run it, walk it, charge it – just have fun with it.
That’s what 5KFoamFest is all about.
Participants receive a race bib, tattoo, water, medal, beach towel and a Chapman’s Sports
Lolly popsicle with their registration. At the festival you will find shower systems, and a $5
gear check where proceeds go to the local Habitat Canada chapter. Experience many
different activities and partner activations onsite. Participants will also experience a kids fun
zone, a 20-foot drop “sky fall” into an inflatable air bag, the world’s tallest portable inflatable
water slide all along with food and drink vendors and the entertaining tunes of the on-site DJ.
In the Greater Toronto Area, the early bird registration is still open. As the registration gets
close to capacity, the price goes up. So, the time to register is now, to take advantage of this
early bird opportunity.
