There were loads of extra bits added around our first ever Apex Extreme event in October 2006. There was Glow Company Challenge that gave teams pole position for the main event on Saturday. There was the Great Apex Extreme Balloon Challenge and the Grand Sunday Finale. But at the core of the weekend was a regular Apex Challenge event with a dozen exciting adventure activities for teams to try out.
