Join us for the annual Gimmick Rally on Saturday, May 17th
Registration opens on Sat, Apr 12th at 9:00 AM. Register early by clicking the "Register Here" box to avoid being placed on the waiting list or not being able to register if the tour sells out early!
Come join us for a different kind of driving adventure on the 3rd annual PNWR gimmick rally! Scheduled for "Syttende Mai" or "17th of May" (Norway's constitution day), you will explore fun back roads and learn about the history of local native tribes and scandinavian settlers in the pacific northwest as you tour through the farmland and coastal views while answering historical and visual clues along the way. Prizes for best scores will be awarded at the end!
Unlike group-based tours, each car will be released from the start separately and receive their own set of instructions which include driving directions, location-based historical facts, and clues for things to watch out for and answer while following along the tour. Designed to be family and/or partner friendly, total driving time should be around 3-4 hours (depending on your pace) with plenty of stops along the way. You MUST have a navigator to join the tour.
