The Ultimate Bermuda Experience

The Ultimate Bermuda Experience participants stopped by
The Reefs after their challenges

The Reefs was very fortunate and honored to participate in a great event last week organized and inspired by Phil Keoghan, host of the CBS show The Amazing Race. Dubbed “The Ultimate Bermuda Experience” and sponsored in part by Mr. Keoghan’s energy bar NOW, four lucky couples won a sweepstakes to fly to Bermuda, stay with us here at The Reefs, and compete in an activity filled experience around the island.

In the theme of The Amazing Race, they rode mopeds, kayaked, rode jet skis, had a rum cake eating competition and ended the event at The Commissioner’s House at the Maritime Museum in the Royal Naval Dockyard.

Although it was all in good fun and everyone was a winner, the official winner and big congratulations went to Joy McDaniel from New Mexico. The contestants spent the next few days as our guests and got to spend time relaxing and recovering from their busy day!

In addition, Mr. Keoghan brought his women’s cycling team, NOW and Novartis for MS, with him to Bermuda where they spent many hours training on Bermuda’s windy and hilly roads. His team helps in raising money for multiple sclerosis and while here put on a gala which raised over $24,000 for the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Bermuda.
