Register Now For Therapeutic Recreation's Amazing Race

Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation's Therapeutic Recreation
Section will sponsor an "Amazing Race" on Saturday, Nov. 6, 2010, to
raise money its summer day camp scholarship fund. Individuals
interested in participating will need to register as teams of two by
October 25. The registration fee is $100 per team.

The "Amazing Race" is a fun-filled urban adventure where teams solve
puzzles, figure out clues, find locations and complete challenges
while discovering uptown Charlotte. This year, the race will begin in
Marshall Park, 800 E. Third Street, with the first team leaving on
their adventure at 9 a.m.

Prior to the race, all teams will participate in a pre-race meeting at
Marion Diehl Recreation Center, 2219 Tyvola Road, on Tuesday, November
2, from 7 p.m. – 9 p.m. The meeting will cover rules and expectations
for the race and start times for each team. Race numbers and T-shirts
also will be distributed. Since this race involves solving challenges,
race times will be determined by team scores in a Charlotte Trivia
Challenge. The higher the team score in the trivia challenge, the
earlier the start time.
