PROCEEDS







This event is a production of
GO Adventure Recreation
     Will be held on Saturday September 25th, 2010.  As always, the race site will be near beautiful Prescott, Arizona.

A portion of the proceeds from this event goes to Boy Scout Venturing Crew 1 to enable them to continue to test themselves with outstanding high adventure activities.  In the past, the Crew has taken on many exciting challenges, like summiting Half Dome in Yosemite National Park, Deep Sea Fishing, Epic Backpacking, Paddling the Colorado River and competing in Adventure Races.

We donate a portion of the proceeds to the Prescott Kiwanis Foundation Endowment Fund so that the kids of Prescott will benefit in perpetuity.  The Kiwanis Club of Prescott is a
huge force in getting things done for the children in the Prescott area.

RACE HISTORY
     This race was originally designed as a way to incorporate the many activities that Boy Scout Venturing Crew 1 took part in and form them into a one day race for the Crew members. Our first event covered a total of 12 miles and we had six 2-person teams made up of our teenaged Crew members.  Over the years, we have grown into a full fledged Adventure Race!

     Now open to the public, it has evolved into one of Arizona's most popular and the state's biggest Adventure Race.  Teams from as far away as Florida and Washington  have come to compete in the GAR.

         The race is named in posthumous honor of a former BSA Troop 1 Eagle Scout named Shane Gilmore. Shane was killed in a tragic car accident involving a drunk driver. We chose to name the race after him because he was very active in the high adventure aspects of scouting, and would have loved the sport of Adventure Racing.
