here is some details on the road rally

Two or more people, in ordinary cars, on regular roads, within the legal speed limit, make up a Road Rally crew. MADD will host a "game rally" event. The challenge is to drive on time and answer trivia-type questions and participate in game-like activities. The rally is about 40 miles long and will take 2-4 hours to complete.

All of the events are essentially non-timed sign hunts, but it is the way in which the game is organized and the theme used that makes it enjoyable for you. All signs used as markers for the road rally are non-mobile.

Unlike the serious professional road rallies that take place involving time and intense precision in every aspect, MADD's Shifting Gears road rally is a fun innovative and novelty rally involving clues, puzzle solving as a way to identify landmarks and thus navigate the course route.

I'll be Chief-Cook and Bottle Washer for a aviation fraternity Wing-Ding on the 14th---about 25 airplanes and over 100 old--bold pilots. Wish I could be there, but this was planned a year ago. Hope some of you folks can make it---sounds like fun. , Maury
