Doctors, nurses and other medical staff of the Ponoka Hospital and Care Centre stepped out of their comfort zones last weekend as they raced, jumped, paddled and wheel-barrowed their way through a number of challenging events for the Amazing Race Medical Mixer.
Along with raising money the exercise also benefited the staff themselves.
“I think it’ll just be fun, and a good team building exercise. We don’t have many of those,” said Megan Cox, a nurse at the hospital who helped man one of the challenge stations.
