Roads and Art Westmont hosts Road Rally and Linocut Art Exhibit By Robin Ambrosia Staff Reporter
The Westmont Special Events Corporation will host the Westmont Rock and Roll Road Rally, which is a scavenger hunt on wheels with a rock ‘n’ roll theme. The inaugural event will be held Saturday at various locations throughout the village of Westmont. “It’s a clues-based scavenger hunt on wheels,” event chairman Bob Mackert said. “Each participating road rally team will solve clues and engage in various challenges in an attempt to earn points and become the Rock & Roll Road Rally Champions.” Organizers were concerned about road safety with drivers rushing to each destination. However, this event is not
a race. None of the scoring is based on travel times between locations and all destinations will be located in the Westmont area, according to Mackert. Following the event, road rally teams will be invited to a post-rally party at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Westmont.The party will feature the band Blue Road. The finish line party and live band in the courtyard will be open to the general public. The sign-up fee is $10 per person with a minimum of $40 per vehicle. Winning teams will receive cash and prizes. The event has incorporated the assistance of the Westmont Police Department to ensure event safety.
