Drambuie Pursuit 2010: The Journey Begins
Join the 2010 Drambuie Pursuit: Create a team of four for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to adventure across the Highlands in the footsteps of Drambuie’s creator, Bonnie Prince Charlie. This adventure packed, adrenaline-fueled, 9-stage course escapade includes events such as archery, white water rafting, dune buggy racing, mountain climbing, speedboat racing, mountain biking and more. The Drambuie Pursuit is basically a 100-mile outdoor adventure retracing the steps of Bonnie Prince Charlie as he fled the British Army.
To sign up for the 2010 Drambuie Pursuit:
· Choose a Team Name using Drambuie as your inspiration
· Designate a Team Captain from the four member team
· Explain why the members of your team have joined together for the 2010 Drambuie Pursuit
· Take your health into consideration
· In 100 words or less in your most creative scribble possible (be honest), weave the tale of why your team should be chosen to compete in the 2010 Drambuie Pursuit – Did I mention those teams chosen to compete get to go all expenses paid!?
Get a feel for what the 2009 Drambuie Pursuit Teams offered up in the way of competition by visiting Drambuie and clicking on the “Campfire” heading at the top of the site. Here you can read all of the team bios. Interesting tidbits of information you’ll find around the “Campfire”:
· Which team would have liked grizzly bear wrestling added to the lineup? Hint, they admit to smelling like Sasquatch.
· Another clever team has hidden talents galore! We just can’t read about them due to Drambuie’s legal guidelines of avoiding “defamatory, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive or a person’s privacy, adult material or otherwise in violation of any international or United States Federal law.” OH MY! Now I’m extremely interested in these unique talents.
· Which team wishes they were five years younger, affiliate themselves with Loch Ness, and claim to have taken a “Secret Weapon” with them?
· A little irony in the team who claims to be raucous out on the town, yet compared their team to the tortoise from Aesop’s tale of The Tortoise & the Hare.
· If speed Haggis eating were part of the competition, one team in particular claims they would “dominate.”
· I’m wondering if the self-proclaimed class clowns of the competition lived up to their bio. They are bonded by a marathon dance off, wished synchronized slip-and-sliding would be added to the race and apparently leave answering machine messages that require translators. Don’t they all?
Ready to follow in Bonnie Prince Charlie’s footsteps? How about the footsteps of the 2009 Drambuie Pursuit Teams who just went before you? Registration is now open for the 2010 Drambuie Pursuit. The Spirit Lives On…
