Three Challenges
Each family team (at least 4 members) will choose a challenge to work toward:
Challenge 1: Discover the 8 Wonders of Kansas! This journey requires each person to get 2 ½ hrs of moderate activity per week.
Challenge 2: Go Cross Country from Troy (NE) to Elkhart (SW), which requires 4 hrs of activity per person/week.
Challenge 3: Little Balkans to Nicodemus – a trail that takes you through SE Kansas and then up to Nicodemus with interesting stops along the way. This requires 6 hrs of activity per person/week.
