LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!!

“Amazing race was an amazing mess. Everything that could have possibly gone wrong did. On the other hand, at our locations I was press and excited to smile in the pictures because WE MADE IT, even though we were in the last place. I got to connect with Stephanie and Ranita and enjoyed debriefing”. – Laquesha

“It can get stressful out there when you don’t have the time to get from one school to another and you’re working against the clock. It really does take communication with your co facilitator. Also, transit is expensive”. – Jeremy
