The Event Not To Be Missed!!
Starting location: Bay Cafe'- 2809 Boston StreetTo register:
Visit the Mobtown Madness Registration Page
Tickets are $25 per person in advance (until 9/15/10) or $35 per person for late entry (after 9/15/10)
**All teams are encouraged to pre-register before September 17, 2010.**
The game works like this:
When the race begins, teams are given an initial clue to solve.
When the clue is solved, it will lead them to a location.
At that location they must find and solve another clue leading to another location. They will travel around Baltimore, deciphering new clues in various locations.
The game culminates in race-to-the-finish, followed by a celebration. The first team to reach the final destination with the shortest race time and the most clues solved wins the game…
So here’s the deal:
Get a team of 1-5 people to load in one car, sign up via email, send us your registration donation and you’re ready to join in the madness… We would recommend putting together your personal dream team: a group with a variety of skills and knowledge (a car full of New-to-Towners might be fun, but I bet you’ll get lost a lot) for your best chances to win!
The Objective:
Have a great time… oh, and be the team who takes the shortest amount of time to solve as many clues as possible and return to home base with clues in hand.
Time commitment:
The route should take 1 - 3 hours and then if you’re able, plan on hanging out afterwards to see how other teams did and for general camaraderie.
You are playing for:
All are playing for their own entertainment and to benefit Unchained Talent, the student-driven, performing arts and mentoring program!
