Road Rally
Sunday, June 27th
11 am till 3 pm
Awards Ceremony 5pm
City Administration Parking Lot, corner of Blvd. & 1st St.

Road Rally, Edmond, OK The Road Rally is designed as a fun family event and really easy to participate in. It is just like a scavenger hunt on wheels.

Instructions are given to you as you leave the launch site (City Administration Parking Lot Corner Boulevard & First) and you are directed all around the city answering questions as you go.

The course lasts from one to two hours. The car with the most correct answers and having the closest time and mileage to the ideal time and mileage is declared the winner. It is important to realize that this is NOT a race but a timed event. Finishing too fast is just as bad as finishing too slow. The rally is also not an old car exclusive. People have come in old cars, but everything from pickups to station wagons and motorcycles have been entered in the past. If it runs and can go 35-65 miles without stopping, it will work!

The Road Rally will be held Sunday, June 27th. Registration will begin at 10:00am. The first car will leave at 11am. Participants can sign up for flights that will leave 11am, Noon, 1pm or 2pm. (You can register and then come back for the flight you signed up for).

The entrance fee is $10.00 per vehicle. Trophies are awarded to the Top Ten finishers with the highest scores. There must be at least two people per vehicle - a driver and a navigator. Many cars actually have several people in them. The more eyes looking, the better. Also, some questions are designed with kids in mind. But, there is one word of warning: The Road Rally has tested people's relationships and marriages in the past...and will undoubtedly do so in the future.

    Sample questions from the past
  • What happened in 2006?
  • Where is Earthy Street?
  • What game would you play with TYE?
  • What is the future for Edmond Electric?
    Answers
  • SR PG Championship
  • Terra PL
  • Disc Golf
  • Substation

As you can see, sense of direction, logic and common sense all come into play. Some answers are easy, others are tricky. The challenge is there for you to take.

Road Rally answers and trophy presentation will be over in time for all contestants to go and enjoy "A Taste of Edmond".

First street from Broadway to the RR tracks will be closed for Taste of Edmond.

Road Rally Mission Statement:
"Enjoying competition with safety in mind".
