Three guys, 69 pies, 100km, giving kids a chance to try new things!
Christchurch, Canterbury
Three mates got together and realised they loved pies and trying new things. We're going to run 100km and eat 69 pies EACH throughout the course of July, amongst other antics!
We want to make sure heaps of other kiwis have the opportunity to try new things, so we are supporting Hillary Outdoors Trust, a organisation dedicated to getting young kiwis outdoors trying new things.
Hillary Outdoors is a charitable trust that provides outdoor education primarily to young people. Hillary Outdoors opened its first centre in 1972 beside the Tongariro National Park. In 2006 a second centre opened on Great Barrier Island with a marine focus. The organisation also runs a very successful series of nationwide adventure-based events throughout the year.
Hillary Outdoors is a not-for-profit organisation run by a charitable trust. Their programmes are often described by a wide variety of participants as a life-changing experience.
