About:

This is the 4th Annual all woman’s run which was originally created to unite the female wheeling community together by having an all-female driver registration for a day run in support of the YWCA – Minden Haliburton Woman’s shelter.  We encourage attendees to stay for the weekend at Minden Off-Road Park for a Saturday night bon-fire and beverages of your choice.

Family members including spouses and children are welcome to attend the event as passengers for no cost if they choose, but the focus is to have an all-female driven run.

***If you are a Male and register you will not be refunded and will not be allowed to drive – your registration costs will be donated to the Woman’s shelter***

 

Guides:

This is a guided trail run.  Your guides are all females and have over the years guided at multiple different events and have multiple years of experience off-roading.

Details:

The event offers either Public land trails or private land trails.

The public land trails can be accessed by anyone at anytime and are located between the area of Minden, Bobcaygeon and Gooderham. There are 4 public trails ranging from Beginner to advanced. Each participant will be designated to the trail based on the drivers experience and vehicle modifications.  This is to ensure everyone has a great day!

The private land trails located in Bobcaygeon are an exclusive opportunity for ladies with some experience and capable vehicles to enjoy some challenging terrain with beautiful views and various obstacles to attempt. We recommend that you have at least been out on an off-road trail twice before and that your minimum tire size is 33′ and you have a 2 inch lift. This private land does come at an extra cost, which we believe is completely worthwhile since access to this land is hard to come by.

 We will also take the necessary COVID-19 precautions for social distancing.

Requirements:
We will require all female drivers to be members of the OF4WD for insurance purposes and access to the trail index.  It is paramount to fill out all the required fields on the registration form honestly and correctly to help us assign groups and provide the best experience possible.  The trails will range from beginner to expert.  if you have attended before, the organizers will try and ensure you are assigned to a different trail then in the past.

Cost:

Public Land registration: $65

Private Land registration $125

The cost of registration includes a black pony tail baseball hat with a gold NAPP logo and a tall can Koozie/tumbler. The remainder of the cost is allocated to a small administration fee and the balance will be donated to the YWCA Minden/Haliburton Woman’s shelter. Last year we raised $1200.

T-shirts in black with the Gold NAPP logo are available as an option for the additional cost of $35. Sizing is on the small side. The brand is Bella and Canvas and the style is called flowy rolled cuff tee.

NAPP stickers are also available in both Black and White at a cost of $20.

There are no refunds for cancelations.

This event is not providing accommodations.  If you plan on staying the weekend or night please contact Minden Off-Road Park online and book your accommodations appropriately – there are very limited rooms available at this time but lots of camping.
