Farmer Maggot has caught you stealing his mushrooms again! He says he'll let you off the hook if you replace the ones you took. Scattered around the Old Forest, mushrooms lie in wait for you to collect them, collect the most before the time runs out and the forest takes you. Run by yours truly (@SugarKoala) You can apply for the activity here.
Do you have the stamina and endurance of the mighty Uruk-hai? Can you run across the Wold without a single stop to rest your breath? Well the Uruk-hai obstacle course is the challenge for you.
@Iru and @Wollip666 present to you an insane challenge.

The age of Men is over, the time of the Orc has come. 3 dates and 3 time zones, don’t miss out and sign up here!

You have to be fast, you have to be precise and you have to be furious. This is the speed building contest, where boys turn into men and women grow mighty beards.
You are given a small amount of time, and in that time you need to build and cooperate with your team to create the best and most architecturally advanced build you have ever done. Only the best will survive.
If you’re interested in a fast, fun packed event run by our own @wodleth sign up now to get assigned randomly into a team of 5 here

Ever wished you had the ability to take a boat for a spin around Middle-earth? Go over the falls of rauros? Take a fishing trip on the brandywine? And are you tired of getting in trouble for driving boats? Well not anymore! Run by our own ranger @Indorilian starting 19th at 22:00 BST (GMT +1) , join the great competition of Boromir’s Boat races!
It will consist of 3 races and 3 rounds: The preliminary round, which anyone can join, Semi-finals, and finals. Do you have what it takes to become the boating champion? Then sign up today!
*MCME is not responsible for any incidents of drowning, falling, or injury to boaters or property.

So there are boat races, there are marathons, but there is one extreme sport that hasn't been achieved in Middle Earth: Climbing!! The Falls Of Rauros Challenge determines who is the ultimate Minecraft Middle Earth Mountaineer through three short knock-out heats to the top of Tol Brandir, Falls of Rauros. Competitors will begin at the bottom of the Falls, where they will daringly ascend through unforgivable parkour cliff jumps and threatening shear drops!
