Fayetteville — ACR Health will hold its sixth Annual Sled for RED Cardboard Sledding Derby on Saturday, Feb. 6, at Four Seasons Golf and Ski Center in Fayetteville. Registration begins at 4 p.m. The Cardboard Sledding Derby begins promptly at 5 p.m., followed by a tubing party on the slopes and a food/drink sampling in a heated tent.
Each sledding team can have a maximum of five members and is allowed to use only regular cardboard, tape and paint to construct the sled. The sledding team must fundraise a minimum $250 to enter Sled for RED. The cheer team for each sled can be an unlimited number (the bigger the better!). Awards are given for the loudest cheer team, the fastest sled, the slowest sled, the highest fundraiser, the best decorated sled and the best team costume.
The tubing party following the competition is $12 per person. The fee to attend the hot chocolate, food, beer and wine sampling is $10 per person; $5 for age 10 and younger. All money raised will support ACR Health’s youth prevention programs and emergency client needs.
