Join us Saturday June 9th 2012 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. for Scottsdale’s original annual event! Mighty Mud Mania is held at Chaparral Park located at 5401 N Hayden Rd. This year, 7-17 year olds will need to be there before 12:00 p.m. to run in the original mud course, because adults will get to compete in the course from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. for a $10 admission fee! Kids can encourage their parents to show them their skills or adults can challenge each other for the first time in 36 years! Registration for Scottsdale’s celebration of water and mud begins at 8 a.m. Participants must bring a signed permission slip or have a parent or guardian available at the event to sign one. In addition, participants must wear lace-up or Velcro shoes (sandals and flip-flops are not allowed).
The event is free, but participants are asked to bring a non-perishable food item for donation to the Vista del Camino food bank. Activities are planned for two age groups, 6 and younger and 7 to 17. The younger group can enjoy the mini mud obstacle course, mud pits, water play area, sand castle building and a town of mud dubbed “Mudville.” Older children can try the original mud obstacle course (from 8am to 12 noon,) sandcastle building and mud pits.
