Arm wrestlers, strong(wo)men and fans, get ready for a big weekend in June at the Rideau Carleton Raceway in Gloucester, Ontario (Canada).

Kicking things off on Saturday, June 18, the North American Arm Wrestling Championships will be held, with mens's and women's classes - both right- and left-handed, with multiple body weight categories.

And on Sunday, June 19, also at the Rideau Carleton Raceway, there will be a strongman contest that will also include a women's competition. Special guests for the strongman contest include: Sam Dube (TSN announcer), Travis Lyndon (Ontario's Strongest Man) and Mike "The Destroyer" Roy (whose feats of lower arm strength need no introduction here).
