Hello!
Big Peach wanted to get the word out about our Live Well Event taking place this Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.!!! Please post on your blogs---we really appreciate you guys and gals making Decatur such a wonderful place to work, live and play!
On Sept. 25th we will be hosting an event with Subaru, SORBA, Nantahala, Blue Ridge Outdoor and Bicycle South at the Decatur Big Peach Running Co. on 114 E. Trinity Place (behind City Hall and across from Chick-fil-A). There will be a scavenger hunt that coincides with this event that will start that Saturday morning. Additionally, there will be Subaru cars available to test-drive for customers, a Bicycle Skills Demo area presented by Bicycle South, a variety of outdoor gear presented by Blue Ridge Outdoors and a cool kayak area with an outdoor pool provided with Nantahala.
Every person who test-drives a Subaru vehicle will receive a $20 gift certificate to the vendor of their choice (who is participating in the event). There will be prizes for all the finishers of the scavenger hunt along with some really cool items for the top three teams.
Here's the skinny as appears in our e-newletter (below). People can sign up for the scavenger hunt on our website under the Clinics tab.
"The" Event
What are you doing Saturday? We've got a day planned that is just as colorful as the autumn leaves. The festivities take place at BPRC Decatur. We kick things off at 8:00am with another one of our famously fun scavenger hunts. Teams of 2 join forces as they test their knowledge with our pre-run trivia contest. The team with the most correct answers gets their scavenger hunt clues first. With a digital camera or a cell phone with camera in hand, the team then uses their puzzle solving and navigational skills on a 3-5 mile course. The first team back is not necessarily the winner. The team that most successfully completes the course wins.
OK, that's just the beginning. Here's the rest of the story:
Subaru/Big Peach Live Well Event.
Between the hours of 8:00am and 4:00pm, Stivers Subaru of Decatur is bringing several of their latest and greatest models to BPRC for you to test drive. Subaru is the Official Car of BPRC, and no doubt you've seen our fleet around town. And, get this everyone taking a car out for a spin will receive a $20.00 BPRC gift card. (You must be 18 years of age to test drive a car, and present your driver's license to be eligible.)
That's pretty cool, for sure, but there's so much more! Stivers Subaru isn't the only F.O.P. (Friend of Peachy) coming out to play:
Bicycle South is setting up a bicycle skills demo area, where not only can you check out some great bikes, there will also be a skills contest.
SORBA (Southeast Off-Road Bicycle Association) will be available to answer any questions you may have about mountain biking, and the great trails we have right here in town!
The Nantahala Outdoor Center is bringing a demo pool to show you some amazing kayak tricks and moves.
Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine rounds out the day with great outdoor gear for you to check out.
Please let us know if you're planning on participating in the scavenger hunt by signing up below. Otherwise, just come by anytime between 8:00 and 4:00 to enjoy the fun. There will be prizes and give-aways throughout the day, so plan on spending some time with us!
