Last rally of the year, and part of the 3 event series of WOR Games.

Halloween-themed road rally that runs around Dayton and the surrounding area, ~3hrs or so.  Start meeting at 10am and first car out at 1045am, purposely later than before so you have time to attend Dayton Cars and Coffee if you want.

Starts at Roscoe's Pizza in Waynesville and ends there after visiting 7 stops that include pumpkin patches, cemeteries and a neat retail store.  Bonus points for wearing a costume (of any kind), trivia questions, purchasing small items along the way, etc.  Prizes at the end, and everyone gets a small vinyl decal.

Road Rally on MSR

(I tested it out Saturday and will spare you the suspension-grinding stop I wanted to use at an old pet cemetery.)

Everyone gets a free decal, I made 1-2-3rd place trophies on Monday.  Weather looks like it's going to be nice.

That looks really fun! I'll be at a "trunk or treat" car show this weekend down here in Orlando

In reply to Aaron_King :

I plan to do at least 2 next year, not sure I'll do 3 again but never say never.  Maybe a spring and Halloween events again.

The weather was a bit chilly but not terrible, maybe the cooler temp and overcast added to the atmosphere?  11 entries, about 20 or so people total, 3-4 hours running around Dayton and surrounding areas.  A good mix of city streets, a little highway, and some country roads.  Cemeteries to find car-related residents, two pumpkin patches, a retail store with lots of spooky eclectic stuff to see, and other Halloween-y stuff!  Costumes were encouraged (and score needed bonus points), a couple cars were slightly decorated.  But everyone said they had fun and all I saw were smiling faces so I guess I did ok.
