The Hurricane Olympics Storm Through Carlsbad

by The Editors on August 4, 2008

HurricaneOkay, we have to be honest. We were out of town this weekend and we missed out on a couple things. One of them was the 2nd Annual Hurricane Games at McGee Park on Saturday, August 2, 2008.

The games themselves are outrageously silly and it appears that drinking is encouraged, but this year it was all for a good cause: Make-A-Wish San Diego.

Hurricane Olympics Mission Statement: Bring friends and colleagues together in a competitive atmosphere that promotes fun with the end goal of giving back to the community.

If you attended this year’s games, please leave a message in the comments and let us know all the stupidity that we missed. And trust us, we will not miss them next year.

Hurricane Olympics was unbelievable. However, my quads are killing me from participating in the Bouncy Ball relay. Best event was the Obstacle course. Best part of the obstacle was watching people try to eat a saltine cracker and then whistle.

We had a great turn out and hope to expand next year.

Thanks to all who came out. It was an amazing day and for a wonderufl cause. Stay tuned to our website – we’ll be having more events year round. We’ll have photos updated by this weekend.
PS. My team won the silver but we are already training for next year.

the Hurricane Olympics site does not work? or is it just my computer?
