Sparks is joined by Tim Clark, an educator at New Horizons High School in Lewistown to talk about their upcoming Spring Lake Adventure Challenge on Saturday, October 13th.

The Adventure Challenge is being held to help raise funds for the school’s annual Senior Trip to sightsee in Chicago.

This is an all-ages, family-friendly event where teams use a map and compass to seek out check points and solve challenges. Registration starts at 9 a.m. in the Spring Lake spillway parking lot, with a racer’s meeting at 9:40 a.m., and the event runs from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m.
