The ultimate test of physical and mental endurance…

Countryside Camp and Conference Centre will be hosting a Pedal Car Grand Prix on May 3rd from 1-3pm at the Calvary Ayr Church at 173 Northumberland St, Ayr, ON.  This Pedal Car Grand Prix is a fundraising event that will assist Countryside Camp with sponsoring over 50 children and youth to attend their summer ministry, “Camp Shalom”, this summer.

The Pedal Car Grand Prix will start at 1pm on a challenging course marked out in the parking lot at Calvary Ayr and will finish by 3pm. Our Pedal Cars have a rider weight restriction of 350 lbs and have an adjustable seat for children and adults. If your rider is old enough to attend camp (6yrs), then they are old enough to ride; young riders should bring their bike helmets. Those under 6yrs can ride with a parent.
