#SaturdaySocial



A long, long, LONG time ago my parents participated in a scavenger hunt of sorts around their city. It was called Road Rally and if memory serves me correct my Dad was part of putting it all together - determining the locations of clues etc. I think this might be where I get my love of scavenger hunts. Anyway, the church group they did it with is still doing it these days - in fact one of my lifelong friends and her husband won first place with their team in the past couple of years! Her parents had done it with my parents. If I still lived in Michigan I have a feeling I would be doing it as well. Anyway. 

Fast forward a *few* years to when I was co-leading a group of ladies. The other co-leader and I planned a ladies night out and decided to do it "Amazing Race" style - similar I bet to my parents Road Rallies. We had the ladies gather in teams and then drive all over our city completing challenges and making their way to where we were waiting for them. It was SO MUCH FUN! 

I've been thinking about these road rallies a lot lately and noodling around the idea of putting one together. It's a great idea, I think, for a #SaturdaySocial .

And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa
