The Plot
SO what is it?
The Splash and Dash Adventure Challenge is a race for teams of Explorers, Network and Leaders across the Lake District, by several different methods of transport. It is designed to bring the best in each discipline to the front across West Lancs County.
The competition runs on the first weekend in October each year, and takes a day to complete. Each seperate activity takes a pair of people from the team (with one exception), and the final leg is open to all the competitors in the team.
The seperate activities are:
- Running / orienteering
- Canadian (open) Canoeing
- Mountain Biking
- Sea Kayaking
- Fell run / mountaineering
Each activity is run by specialists in that activity, from West Lancashire Scouts.
Teams (consisting of 7 people) will need to have specialists in each activity. Everyone does one activity, plus has the option to participate in the final challenge - a fell run.
