By: ACE Adventure Resort The event at ACE Adventure Resort (http://aceraft.com/) With several years of hosting this fundraiser under their belts, organizers have notched the 5k route up again this year with new challenges along some of the wettest and muddiest trails on site. Gals will crawl under, over and through gooey obstacles with names like Commando Crawl (the first of many events that will quickly dissolve any muddy inhibitions) Teams and individuals can participate. Organizers say they won't exclude males who embrace grit, or those tough guys who are man enough to run with the Gritty Chix. Prizes go to the biggest team, the most creative team name and the best team costumes. The event is open to age 10 and up. Those under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Registration is $45. The fee includes free parking and free Saturday night camping, access to showers and evening entertainment at the Lost Paddle Lounge. Check in begins at 10 a.m. and the event begins at noon. Participants can register at http://aceraft.ticketmob.com/ For more information please see http://aceraft.com/ This spring the resort underwent a nearly $1 million infrastructure upgrade with enhanced guest amenities. Along with lodging and food & beverage refurbishments and additions, roads and parking facilities have been expanded and a new entrance landscaped. Much of the splash, however, has been lavished on a five-acre water park. Upgraded Wonderland Waterpark (http://aceraft.com/ ACE Adventure Resort is also the East Coast's premier escape for world-class whitewater rafting (http://aceraft.com/ Once at the resort, people like to stay put. This means that on premise dining and beverage venues are integral to the resort. The current improvements herald renovations to the bar, both inside and out, including a large outdoor pavilion. Also new pizza ovens have been added to facilitate ACE's award-winning brick oven pizza. In addition to being the region's largest private campground for tents and RVs, the resort hosts overnight guests in more than 55 cabins and lodges that sleep from four to 14. Nearly all of the deluxecabins now have new beds, comforters, window dressings, lamps and furniture. Nine one-room Cozy Cabins have been renovated to offer two bedrooms. Full bathrooms have been added to 10 Cedar Cabins. Four other cabins that formerly utilized ladders to access sleeping lofts now have staircases.
