The Kawartha Conservation Foundation is encouraging people to walk, run, skip, bike or hike the trails at Ken Reid Conservation Area as part of the Explore Nature Challenge beginning August 2.
The Explore Nature Challenge is a Foundation-led fundraising initiative to support important projects at Ken Reid Conservation Area and beyond.
The Kawartha Conservation Foundation is excited to launch the Explore Nature Challenge at Kawartha Conservation’s flagship property, Ken Reid Conservation Area. The Explore Nature Challenge is a virtual fitness challenge launching Monday, August 2 where participants can walk run, bike or hike the 11km of trails completely at their own pace.
Whether you decide to complete the challenge all at once, or break it up into varying times and distances, the goal of this challenge is to motivate people to get out, explore and be active.
Best of all, participants who complete the challenge will have trees planted on their behalf at one of Kawartha Conservation’s properties and receive a commemorative medal.
We know that it has been a difficult and trying year after spending most of the past year at home. With Provincial restrictions easing, many of us are looking to reconnect with our loved ones safely in nature. And this is a great way to promote mental, emotional and physical health, while raising important funds to support projects that matter to our community.
