Southern Ontario Amazing Race – Celebrating its 5th year in June 2008
The Southern Ontario Amazing Race (SOAR) is a two-day adventure competition modeled after The Amazing Race television show. Each year, 20 teams of two race and compete in challenges of all sorts that test racers’ mental and physical strengths. Challenges take place around Wellington County and beyond competing. The event takes place the first full weekend in June each year. This will be the event’s 5th year.
In 2007 Paul Pengelly, Glenna Pengelly and Matthew Steffler, the founders of SOAR, were honoured by the Children’s Foundation as volunteers of the year for their incredible support of our programs. SOAR has raised over $120,000 in its first 4 years.
This year’s event will be held on June 7th and 8th. It is the 5th Anniversary of SOAR and promises to be a great event once again.
