Uncle Sam Scallop Jam Road Rally – Public Welcome

THE ROAD RALLY

The Uncle Sam Scallop Jam Road Rally hosted by the Rotary Club of Crystal River is a navigational challenge in which you must solve clues to find the directions a for a predetermined route through Citrus County.

The Road Rally hosted by the Rotary Club of Crystal River is a navigational challenge which combines scorable elements of time, mileage, and observation. Each competing team, consisting of a driver and a navigator, is given a set of written directions in the form of clues to follow a predetermined course through Citrus County. Clues may be riddles, rhymes, a set of pictures, etc. Teams then drive the course independently, departing at set intervals, and strive to follow the course exactly. Teams are scored on how closely to the given time and mileage they arrive at the finish line. This road rally is not a race. In fact, arriving too early actually hurts a team’s score, as does arriving too late. Being late or early or having too much or too little mileage incurs penalty points.

Sign in for the Rally begins at 11:30. Cars will start going out beginning at 12:30. If the participants have not completed the course by 5:00 PM they should proceed to Brannen Bank on US-19 in Crystal River.
