Mayor’s Challenge The mayors are in competition to see whose community will have the most participants in the Thousand Islands Parkway Challenge. Will last year’s winner, Leeds and the Thousand Islands uphold their title of fittest township, or will Front of Yonge get their crown back? The Community Better Challenge ParticipACTION has initiated the Community Better Challenge which coincides well with our Thousand Islands Parkway Challenge event. ParticipACTION wants to know just how active we get at our event by tracking the estimated “active minutes” of all the participants. Let’s put out minutes together and show them how active a small town can really be! Cycling Without Age The Brockville Chapter of Cycling Without Age is offering trishaw bicycle rides to seniors or those living with a disability that makes it difficult for them to cycle themselves. If you or a family member are interested, select Fox Run as your start point and note that you are interested in a trishaw bicycle ride. Event Day
