WILMINGTON
The Wonders of
WOW CHALLENGES
Each WOW Challenge consists of six selected "trails," with the optional experience of
visiting the summit of Whiteface Mountain or Little Whiteface in whatever way is most
appropriate for you: by foot, by car, by bike, or by gondola. For each challenge you
complete, you'll be able to register online to be added to our finisher's roster and receive
the corresponding 3-inch WOW patch. And, if your pet companions join you, they can be
registered and receive a 2-inch WOW patch designed just for them!
We invite you to explore and experience
Wilmington by participating in one or all
three of our Wonders of Wilmington
(WOW) Challenges!
