QUESTIONS À PROPOS DE L’ÉDITION 2026
This edition of the Leucan Ski Challenge celebrates the world of video games! We invite teams to dive into this colorful theme and let their creativity shine: themed costumes, fun accessories, and team names inspired by your favorite games, characters, or franchise are all welcome.
Whether you’re a team of superheroes, pixelated runners, or retro champions, have fun creating your own identity in the spirit of the Challenge. It’s the perfect opportunity to add a touch of whimsy and strengthen team spirit!
Participation in the theme is entirely optional—the most important thing is to have fun while supporting children with cancer and their families.
In addition to the minimum of about $250 per participant, each team can aim higher by reaching different fundraising levels. Just like in a video game, the more you progress together, the more new rewards you unlock and the further you advance in the Challenge!
| Levels | Amounts collected | Rewards |
| Level 1 | 2 500 $ | upcoming |
| Level 2 | 5 000 $ | Team building activity |
| Level 3 | 15 000 $ | Reserved space |
At each level reached, a reward celebrates your efforts and makes the experience even more memorable. It’s a fun and motivating way to recognize your team’s commitment while supporting children with cancer and their families.
If your team reaches the first fundraising level, you will receive a bucket of candy to share on the day of the Challenge to celebrate your efforts. By reaching the second level, a team-building activity will be offered on-site to celebrate your progress together. And if your team reaches the third level, you will have a reserved space during the Challenge to fully enjoy the event.
You have until March 1st to climb levels and unlock your rewards.
Participation in the fundraising levels is entirely optional: your team can choose to take on these additional challenges or simply raise the minimum fundraising amount per participant.
Happy fundraising and enjoy!
