Congratulations to the record number of participants who puzzled their way through some of Adams County most beautiful roads on Saturday, October 15. A great time was had by all as we drove past 19 preserved properties over 48 gorgeous miles.

We received many comments that this was the best Rally yet – but we are not sitting on our goat straw. We are already planning the Best Ever Road Rally for our 25th Anniversary edition next year. Save the date: Saturday, October 21, 2023 Finally, a sincere thank you to all of our sponsors. Besides being a lot of fun, this event is a fundraiser, critical to our efforts to preserve land in Adams County. In fact this year we raised over $23,000! Without the donation of their facilities by our three stop sponsors and the generous gifts from our many event sponsors and prize donors, it would not be possible to host this event each year. So, a sincere thank you to all listed here.
