Amazing Race says thank you

Amazing Race says thank you

The second Middelburg Amazing Race, organised by the Middelburg Info Centre, took place last Saturday, 16 October 2021. The teams of 4 had a lot of fun. They started at the newly refurbished Middelburg train station and took on challenges to get clues to each destination.

Participants did everything from solving puzzles, tyre races, a maze, grave watching and archery, paddling a boat, and even writing a test about coffee!

The winning team, Quembu Miners, received R10 000, dr Kobus Family R7500 and Suicide Squad R5 000. Middelburg Care Village received a donation of R5000 and Dr Kobus kindly donated his winnings to Feral Care Friends.

Many thanks to the following sponsors who made the day possible: Thos Begbie, Underground Support Solutions, Middelburg Observer, Xpress Newspaper, 3@1 and Mpumalanga Rail Company.

We would also like to thank the places that hosted the challenges this year: MRC, OH Frewin Museum, Daily Coffee, Middelburg Parkrun, Oregon Place Guest House, Middelburg Heritage Committee, Gables Guest House, Middelburg Info, Middelburg Care Village, Retiefs Optometrist, Battlefields, 3@1 and Hermansdal Landgoed. You made the day great fun for all.

Let’s do it again next year!
