    If you're up for a challenge or just want to get out and have some fun as a family, there's a great event happening just west of Plymouth in Donaldson, IN called the Donaldson Dash. It's put on by the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ in order to help let people know who they are and the resources that are available to the public on their campus. If you're unfamiliar with them, on their campus is Ancilla College which they founded. The Donaldson Dash will feature a challenge and family division where you can race around the campus doing different physical and mental challenges. Dave tried his hand at a few challenges himself. Registration is free and there are prizes.
