THE NLTI SPEED CHALLENGE
EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATES WINS!
ABOUT THE NLTI SPEED CHALLENGE
Dear Families,
1. Do you wish your kids spent less time on video games?
2. Do you want to emphasize a more active and healthy lifestyle to your kids?
3. Or maybe your kids are already pretty active, and would like to compete against their friends?
4. Would you like to give to a good cause and make an impact?
How would you like an event or a day that addresses those issues I mentioned above?
...
Well, The NLTI Annual Speed Challenge covers those questions and then some.
This Event is a great way to…
- Get the kids off the couch playing video games and outside with other friends, doing old-fashioned socializing.
- Emphasize to your kids and family the importance and priority of having an active, healthy lifestyle.
- Allow athletes and their friends to compete with each other for bragging rights.
- Give to a good cause
If any of this sounds good and is something you would like to see your family or community be a part of, then we invite you to come to our Annual NLTI Speed Challenge.
EVENT DESCRIPTION
NLTI Speed Challenge is a challenge for everyone and anyone. We have several races and obstacles set up for anyone to participate in. Whether you have small toddlers, or want to race yourself, it can be done. We have a small section for the youngest children, and a section for the general participants, and even a section for the more serious athletes.
The races and obstacles are short in nature not lasting more than 30 or so seconds.
Participants will be able to move freely from one challenge to another or back in line to compete against who they want, either as a group or a one on one.
Each participant receives a raffle ticket each time they participate, and the winner or winners of their particular challenge will receive extra tickets.
There is no limit to how many times you may race, just simply get back in line or go on to another race.
We will have raffle drawings periodically for prizes from various services, products, and apparel. The more tickets you accumulate, the more chance you have of winning cool prizes. And in case you didn't win a raffle, you will still leave with something!
The 3 main purposes of this event is to promote an active lifestyle for our families and communities, give to a good cause, and to Have Fun!

WHY SUPPORT ST. JUDE?
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. And families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food— because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened more than 50 years ago.
Because the majority of St. Jude funding comes from individual contributors, St. Jude has the freedom to focus on what matters most — saving kids regardless of their financial situation.
St. Jude freely shares the breakthroughs it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
