Entries for the Caxton Reynolds Race 2014 have finally closed and the eight teams that will represent the various towns have been chosen.
The race will kick off on June 7 at Hirsch’s in Boksburg.
The Reynolds Race is based on “The Amazing Race”, and will require participating teams to complete various tasks across the East Rand.
A points system will be used to monitor the teams’ performances.
The first team to finish a task within the given time walks away with bragging rights and top points, which will be added to their overall score card.
The three teams with the most points by the end of the seventh week will all go into the finals, which will be held in Springs on August 2.
The winners of this year’s race win an all-expenses paid trip to Zanzibar, courtesy of the SA Reynolds Travel Centre.
There will also be a readers’ competition, which will kick off soon, so don’t waste any time in getting to know the East Rand as there are wonderful prizes up for grabs for those who wish to get a piece of the action.
