Due to lack of sufficient response, the 100 Mile District Hospice and Palliative Care Society's The Amazing Challenge 3 event has been cancelled.
The fundraiser was slated to be held June 2 and was expected to attract approximately 15 teams, but only six registered.
John Tutte, society public relations committee member, says planning for the event began last November, and cancelling it was a tough decision to make.
"We didn't want to cancel because too much work had been put into it. We feel terrible."
He notes those who entered seemed excited to participate and sponsors, Money Concepts, Royal LePage 100 Mile Realty, Invis and 100 Mile House Free Press offered generous support. He extends gratitude to them all and hopes to try again next year.
Last year, the event raised approximately $3,000 for the local hospice.
