There will be opportunities for sports fans to have their photographs taken and get autographs from sports icons, Mahmoud and Abdullah Bo Shri from Kuwait, rally racer Nada Zeidan of Qatar and teenage swimming sensation Nada Mohamed Arakji of Qatar.
Participants will have the opportunity to jump on a skateboard or lace up a pair of trainers to complete the circuit. The social activity will help Rota raise funds to provide quality education to 48mn disadvantaged children in Asia.
Similarly, the Kids Zone at Wheels ‘n’ Heels 2014 will keep children occupied for hours with non-stop live entertainment, bouncy castles, face-painting and a whole lot of fun games, interactive sports and performances by well-known singers and dancers.
The Wheels ‘n’ Heels Food Zone will fuel the passion for community celebration and an active lifestyle by providing a selection of tasty, healthy snacks and drinks throughout the day.
