The Catherine Adventure Race Extravaganza is a three-day event with beginner clinics on Friday with a huge pre-race dinner, with 4 and 10-hour adventure races on Saturday followed up with a party, beer, and food truck. Camping is available to all teams from Friday through Sunday at the race start in DeLand, Florida. We have rented the entire campground and the surrounding areas, so it's all for us.
