Beyond the Backyard

Beyond the Backyard, a new Habitat Challenge, is part scavenger hunt and part double-dog-dare.

In this COVID-safe, family-friendly adventure race, teams race to complete 24 wild challenges in the categories of  PHYSICAL, FIND, SKILL and FUN. Visit our FAQs for all the details on how the race works.

Suited for all ages and stages, this quest is made for athletes and fun-seekers of all ability levels. 

Race entry is $25/person and teams then raise or self-pledge $300 to benefit Tacoma Habitat’s affordable homeownership and foreclosure prevention programs.  (Entry fees count toward the team goal, so if you have 4 people register, you’re 1/3 there.)

Beyond the Backyard is a unique fundraiser for these times, as the competition is run in your community. There’s no gathering. It’s just you, your team, and the space around you. You can contain it to your immediate family and your own block, or expand out to include some close friends and your city. It’s all up to you and your comfort level.
