Come experience Andover’s great outdoors!

You are invited to be part of a new, unique event: The Andover Scramble. The Scramble is a non-competitive, team-based hike, paddle, and bike relay “scramble” on the Bay Circuit Trail, Andover’s bike loop roads, and the Shawsheen River — all within Andover! The event will be held on Sunday, October 6th starting at 9:00 am and ending with pizza and drinks at the Oak & Iron at 1 pm.
We piloted this event last year to 24 people and now invite you in our 2019 event as a team member or team organizer. It consists of about 4 miles of hiking, 1 mile of paddling, and 15 miles of road biking, starting and ending at the canoe launch on Abbot Bridge Rd. The cost is $25 per participant and is limited to approximately 48 participants.
