Default Mystery Run Today

Did a Mystery Run with my club today. We met at a start point and did a stop in the box test, I didnt do good. then hit the road, we didnt know where we were going it was follow the leader. Four stops later we ended at local pizza joint for dinner. Pic is second stop. Did a Hi/Lo card draw. and ID the two items in the bag by feel. Got two points at that stop. Mine is hidden behind the GS.

Forgot to say the route was through our hills and back roads which are very twisty turny. Had fun being among 15 cars that were out there.

So what's involved in a 'mystery run'?
How's it organized, what activities do you do etc..

Not trying to hijack.... just never heard of this and it looks like fun!

One of our members coordinates it. we started in Santa Maria which for us is 20 miles north east. met in mall parking structure. he drew a 2 ft box on the ground and we had to drive about 50 yrds around a light pole and put our rear pass. wheel in the box with a sock over the pass mirror. it was 1 point if you get on the 2ft box. there was also a 18 inch box inside of that if your got in that it was 2 points. also got a list for a scavenger hunt. you had to load your car with house hold stuff he might ask for. IE: egg, stamp, restaurant menu. then off to first stop about 30 miles through back roads through some of our wine country. second stop had to roll a die and add that many points to our list. on to the next stop about 20 miles. Did the Hi/Lo card game and feeling the objects in the bag and ID them. 1 poiint for guessing if the next card drwan was higher or lower than what he drew. and 1 or 2 points if your id"d the 2 items in the bag. next stop had another list for scavenger hunt. then off to last stop for dinner and and add up the points and award prizes, we had to pay 5 bucks to get in the game and it was divided at the end for prizes. Sorry for so long but tried to give al info for it, maybe other clubs can do it.
