It will be an ‘amazing’ weekend for a number of Western students as an Amazing Race fundraiser for the Western Heads East program will see an array of adventures in residences and across campus on Saturday (1 to 4 p.m.).
The top two teams from each residence will move on to compete in the campus-wide finale. Each finalist team must raise at least $100 entrance fee to compete, or $150 for two teams from one residence.
Time bonuses will be awarded based on amount raised and prizes are awarded to top three teams, Best Costumed Team, and Most Spirited Team.
An Amazing Race after party will take place at Saugeen-Maitland residence beginning at 9 p.m. Tickets for the dry event at $5 ($7 at the door).
Western Heads East’s mission is to engage staff, students, faculty and the broader community in teaching, research and service targeting the African HIV/AIDS crisis. This will raise awareness and funds to support the exchange of learning experiences, while making a sustainable difference to communities in Africa.
