Amazing Race

 

The Girl Scout Amazing Race is based on the CBS TV show. We follow the show’s format including Detours, Road Blocks, Yields, Fast Forwards and the dreaded Eliminations at the Pit Stops. The race will include a full weekend of physical and mental challenges. Each team will consist of only one adult and three - four girls. Although we encourage girls to be in charge of the navigation and decision-making, adults will also participate in some challenges. No GPS may be used for this event. Fee includes all entrance and activity fees, lodging (a place for your pads and sleeping bags on a floor) and some of your meals. Teams will have to spend additional funds on gas and some meals. Teams will travel 300-500 miles during this weekend event. Teams will be eliminated starting on Saturday afternoon. It is definitely to your advantage to watch the show in advance! You must be at the starting point by 6 p.m. to start racing. Late teams may be eliminated immediately. All participating teams will be invited to the finish line of the final race. Please note: Team members can switch out through the weekend but each team must always have only one adult and three - four girls.
