The Adventure Challenges are breathtakingly beautiful rambles over sea, lake, mountain trails (and some long pavement) raising money for Canuck Place Children's Hospice, Canucks for Kids Fund and 60 Minute Kids Club. Locations: Jericho Beach, Vancouver BC, BC and Cultus Lake in Chilliwack, BC. One race will include a 4km Ocean Kayak / 20km Mountain Bike / 5km Trail Run and the other a 4k Lake Kayak, 30k road bike, and an 8km ramble in a beautiful rain forest. I do BOTH of them.

Saturday Make-up
The girls were in for a treat on Saturday as they were given the spa treatment. They were also having their hair, makeup, and nails done. My wife Cindy did their makeup. Maggie, who is in grade five, was doing her own makeup for dinner when I came in on Friday. By Saturday she was in the doghouse with her mum and had had taken her makeup AWAY. Cindy came with goody bags of makeup for each of the girls...so Maggie was back in the game. The girls faces were painted and Cindy said they were all happy and pretty.

The Blog
My name is Malcolm and I was a volunteer at Canuck Place Children's Hospice in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada for nearly seven years. Now I support them by raising money by participating in the Canuck Place Adventure Challenges!
I said hospice. Not really a word that you associate with children but there you go. We will tell you about the house as this blog progresses with the hope that you will learn, and as you learn we hope that you will share. The purpose of the Adventure Challenge is to raise money for AND awareness about Canuck Place.
The name of each kid at the house you read about has been changed.
September 14th and 15th are the dates for the next Adventure Challenges.
You can sponsor me for the race here: Adventure Challenge
Maybe you should do the race?

Just a quick note about the names of the kids in the house that you will read about: they are made up!
