Adventure Race Raises Money for a Grace Scholarship
On June 4, over 150 participants from several states participated in “Destination: Unknown”, an adventure race that had participants using their brain and brawn (running, navigation, orienteering, water activities and more).
This year, there were two races running simultaneously; one for new racers and families, the other for those up for a challenge. The race started in Winona Lake and went to some unexplored areas.
All of the money raised (over $10,000) went to a Grace scholarship.

I always wonder what the next possible lesson from Grace could be for us all because I have learned so much from her already in these 5 short but LONG years. The notion that “quitting is not an option” has never been so crystallized in my mind. When I’m carrying her and my arms are burning, I cannot put her down. When she’s vomiting her meds and looks exhausted, we have to clean her up and try again. When I don’t want to get out of bed but I can hear her yelling out “mommy” in the early morning, I just get up. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for her and in her name.
