About
This page is for 1st Woodend Scouts to register for The Fantastic Race.
The Fantastic Race is an amazing adventure that is different every year, no two races are the same.
Patrols are challenged to navigate their way around following clues to get to as many activity points as they can. After they have completed an activity they get the next clue to find the next activity. The activities are spread all over Melbourne and Patrols use public transport to get between them all. Previous years have seen Patrol ascend to the top of Eureka Tower, visit as many McDonalds stores in the CBD as they can in 30mins, ferry trips, play real-life angry birds, play glow in the dark mini-golf, challenged to a game of bubble soccer, hunt around markets and heaps more.
At the end of the Saturday, all Patrols converge on one overnight location to recover and get some rest (after time on the jumping castle, a movie and a huge dinner). On Sunday we head off as one group for a large-scale activity, in the past we’ve been to Werribee Zoo, Luna Park, Ice Skating and even played a giant game of Where’s Wally in the CBD.
It’s different every year and always a great adventure! The details for each year are kept a closely guarded secret from the Scouts, our team of Venturers and Rovers work hard to ensure the activities are fun, adventurous, and unique.
