For the second sutnmcr in
a row, reality TV game
Survivor fans Brenda and
Paul Menary organized a
Survivor challenge for 39

shortening the day and
splitting the work between
a larger group of parents.

and we had more help this
year," says Brenda.

Menarys and their friends
Todd Chisholm Anne Marie
Bedard and Chris Cairns
had a conversation at a
hallgame about turning
their favourite TV show
into a day -long activity for
their children.
Instead of going from 9

the challenge ended at 3
p.m. and the day was more
jam-packed with activities.
Challenges included a
gamc of flags, a food
challenge that involved

this year." says Brenda.
"The kids had a blast.
The weather was great and
they all got gold or silver
medals," adds Totld.
Last year's sole survivor.
Josh Butt. reached the final
challenge but was beaten by
Sara Kramers during a
memory game on a question
that involved identifying a
