MuckFest in New Boston raises $200,000+ for multiple sclerosis research

NEW BOSTON, Mich. – More than 2,000 people got down and dirty Saturday at MuckFest in New Boston.

MuckFest raises money for multiple sclerosis research with participants making their way through a course that included 20 mud-filled obstacles spread over 3 miles.

“I think it’s pretty emotional, everyone here for a reason. It proves no matter what we are dealing with we can do an obstacle like this,” Jennifer Cole said, who has MS.

MuckFest raised more than $200,000.
