The Live Action Quest is Part Amazing Race and Part Treasure Hunt
LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 22, 2017 / Legendary Man is pleased to announce the inaugural Quest of Champions event on Saturday, July 22, 2017 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. As Nate Lind, the CEO/Founder of Legendary Man noted, the theme of the quest will be "Discover Your Champion."
To learn more about Legendary Man's mission to encourage the world to celebrate all men as they are, discover their unique masculinity, inspire men to serve others and champion their transformation, please check out www.legendary-man.com.
"This live-action hero's journey is an afternoon adventure through the city that's part Amazing Race and part Treasure Hunt," Lind noted, adding that the quest will encourage players to complete physical and mental challenges and seek out new locations where the participants will see "figures in history that embody what being a legend means."
Throughout the experience, each player can win thousands in prizes with a grand prize of $1000 cash going to the winning team. The event will utilize the new Legendary Man Adventure app, allowing participants to navigate through the custom treasure hunt through a virtual map (think PokemonGo) that encourages the participants to collaborate and challenges them to complete the missions.
The quest introduces players to the 12 Champions - their guides through the adventure. Each Champion has a lesson to teach and each presides over a part of the journey. As they navigate through the event, they will discover the Champions also exemplify a way of being.
"The Champions have been with us since the dawn of time. We see them over the ages in art, literature, myth, and religion," Lind said. "We hope the adventure inspires the participants to see the beauty, intelligence and goodness around them. We need an activity that encourages the renaissance of men in an adventurous way instead of antiquated, negative, regressive male stereotypes."
There are three registration levels for the event: The Rusticus (Free), The Primus ($39) and The Centurion ($50), which will earn players varying prizes and swag like a chance to win cash, merchandise from the LegendaryMan.com store as well as discounts, gifts and promotions from local businesses.
An additional focus of the event is to support local businesses and charities, Lind noted, which is why Legendary Man has recruited several local companies to collaborate on the event, including Designer Bodies, Straight Chiropractic, The Point Grill and many more.
A portion of the registration proceeds will go to the Desert Forge Foundation, a New Mexico based 501c3 formed by veterans for veterans.
