Welcome

7 days until the Rodney Coast Challenge 2008.

Welcome to the official RCC site. The Rodney Coast Challenge (RCC) is a multisport event run by the Kaukapakapa Scout Group as a fundraiser. The Event is run at the end of October or beginning of November every year and attracts 400+ participants. The profits from this event go towards purchasing new equipment, hiring facilities and other activities for the scout group. Last year's race was up on attendance with 499 participants. This year we hope to break 500.

The 2007 results have been now posted here. There are also some pictures here.
