The Great Race for Education is upon us!

It is time to have a little fun, challenge and competition. Join us July 17th for The Great Race for Education! This is a race that will test you and your team members. You thought you were smart and in good shape - test it at The Great Race for Education! This fund-raising event, designed to promote and enhance EITC’sfoundation scholarship program, will take place in the new and old parts of downtown Idaho Falls. Teams, sponsored by business and individual “Owners,” will come from near and far to pit their wits, fortitude and patience in the ultimate race. This event is a large-scale scavenger hunt where teams of 4 will be challenged to compete for the best finish time. Although intellectual and physical challenges will be included - all ability levels are encouraged to enter.

The race will kick-off at Snake River Landing with a 21 gun salute with City of Idaho Falls Mayor Jared Fuhriman. Worried you won’t cut the mustard? Become a Team Owner and enjoy lunch, dinner and an after party as an owner of a team. Owners will assist teams with clues from base camp (Snake River Landing). Owners will be in the know about where their teams are in the course and the team with the most owners wins a grand prize.
