SUMMARY:Frogman 3D Bowhunters Challenge & 5k Trail
DESCRIPTION:Trail Run- A wooded trail run through the property known as the “400-acres.” The trail is predominantly flat and should be fun for all. This is a course created especially for Frogman.  Medals awarded to the top-overall male and female\, top-overall male and female masters\, and first place in each age division. Everyone crossing the finish line receives a finisher medal. Note: our insurance doesn’t allow dogs at our running events unless they’re a service dog. \nBowhunters Challenge- The Frogman Bowhunter Challenge is not your average 3D shoot it’s a full-day archery adventure built to challenge and inspire bowhunters of every skill level. Modeled after events like Total Archery Challenge\, this course features rugged terrain\, lifelike 3D targets\, and shot opportunities that mimic real-world hunting scenarios from odd angles and long distances to tight gaps and tricky setups. \n  \nFrogman was created by The Campbell Family in 2012 to honor the wish of their beloved SOC (SEAL) Christopher Campbell. Chris lost his life during Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan when a CH-47 Chinook helicopter\, call sign Extortion 17\, in which he and 30 others Americans were riding\, was shot down on August 6\, 2011.  The event honors his final wish to support combat wounded veterans\, his love for hunting\, especially bow hunting\, and the outdoors.
