Need a great way to work off some of the ribs you just ate at Ribfest? The YMCA has a workout plan for you.
Gather a team of three to five people and push a bus.
The event will take place July 7 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Chatham Ribfest.
Push a bus.
It’s a fundraiser for the Y, which annually has a Fill the Bus CAMPaign designed to raise funds to help ensure that every child, regardless of their financial barriers, can experience the joy of camp.
They’ve added a fun wrinkle for Ribfest – pushing the bus. Teams will compete to see who can push a school bus along a 100-metre track the fastest.
Along the way, teams will help by fundraising to send kids to summer camp.
Registration is now open. Entry fee is $200 per team. Teams can pre-register at the front desk of the Y or by visiting ymcaswo.ca/pushthebus. Participants can also register in person at Chatham Ribfest on July 6. Registration closes July 7 at 10 a.m.
