"Lighting the Way"
Mystery Car Rally
For this, someone familiar with your city goes for a drive taking notes as they go. Look out for items of interest. Things to draw or count. Plan a few activities outside the vehicle ... how many times can you kick the ball between the posts? Points are awarded for each correct answer and for the best drawing. The clues can be in rhyme if your compiler is a poet.
Our first Rally took an hour and a half and we followed it with a barbeque. We are planning another soon!
Some instructions for our first Rally are reproduced below. The clues are in black and the answers are in red so you can see how it was done. Good luck!
Hi and welcome to this car rally. Complete all questions and return your tally! The objective of the exercise is to have fun and enjoy the day, so come on and lets get started without further delay.
