Young athletes give it their all in TRY-athlon

More than 50 athletes participated in the second Kids' TRY-athlon during the Ashcroft Wellness Festival.

Some 56 athletes, aged 3–15, participated in the Kids’ TRY-athlon at the 2nd Annual Ashcroft Wellness Festival. Participants from Ashcroft, Cache Creek, Lillooet, Kamloops, and Vancouver swam, biked, and ran, finishing up at the Heritage Park. A few of the younger participants needed a helping hand, but everyone—including the many volunteers—made an incredible effort; congratulations to everyone! Dawson Kubik (11) of Ashcroft was one of the proud winners of a new bike.
