Are you part of an Adventure Race Team living outside Canada and socially involved in your community? If so you could win an invitation (registration fees, 2 plane tickets and 3 hotel nights in Carleton-sur-Mer) to take part in the Gaspésie International Raid, THE race you don’t want to miss this year!

The GIR 2016 will be held from September 8th to 11th in Carleton-sur-Mer. Send us your application before August 15th and a selection will be done by a jury that will determine which social involvement is the most interesting.         

The popularity of the GIR has steadily increased since the first edition presented in 2014. This can be attributed to the national and international teams and media being blown away by the beauty of the Gaspésie region as well as the warm welcome and friendliness of its inhabitants, factors that make the GIR a unique event throughout the world. Many teams and media will be back to relive the excitement. Some will even be present for the third time in as many years.

Beyond the exceptional scenery, crystal clear salmon rivers, extraordinary shoreline, immense forests and dignified welcome raiders receive from the local population, what makes the GIR a unique event is the fact that 200 of the region’s young people are given the opportunity to take part in the first day of activities, alongside the teams that will complete the 300 km and 150 km courses.

What’s more, impressive media production always accompanies this event, making it possible to highlight adventure racing, participating teams, and the host region. One of the biggest TV show distributor will present the GIR shows for the 2015, 2016, and 2017 editions on about 60 channels in 170 countries. Now that they have the show in hand, we can expect that it will be seen by millions of people around the world. Among the sports events clients of this distributor, there are some important tennis championships like Wimbledon, the Australia Open, the Masters Series ATP and the National Football League (NFL).

Don’t wait to send us your application to info@enduranceaventure.com!
