Participant thought race was `amazing'

Dear editor, An Amazing Race in Georgetown? Who would have ever thought? On Oct. 14 23 teams of three go together at the Gellert Community Centre for an adult challenge -- Race For The Hills. We started with a run then returned to the Gellert for our first clue. The clue sent us on our bikes to the library where we had to make a mask of metal then name a collection of paintings. It was one adventure after another with each team working together to sign in at each checkpoint, produce their passports to be stamped and protect an egg for the entire race. All the volunteers were awesome

and the clues and tasks we had to perform were so creative. Everyone received a t-shirt, water, fruit, pizza and a goody bag. There were a lot of great prizes donated by local merchants. A huge thank you to Aaron Matthews, Lori Hofing (Phil), Jessica Taylor and all the volunteers for organizing such an amazing event. We can't wait to see what you guys have planned for next year's Race For The Hills. Lori Martin, Georgetown
