Participants in this year’s race will stay within the safety of their cars as they start and finish at Tyler History Center at 325 W. Federal Street in downtown Youngstown. Each vehicle team will be given separate clues to six historic sites around the Mahoning Valley.

After finding each site in the order of their clue package, teams must safely take a photo with their smartphone. Upon returning to Tyler History Center, MVHS will check all photo answers and determine the winning team.

Participants must return to their specially marked (and socially-distanced) parking spot at Tyler History Center to “cross the finish line.” The winning vehicle will be revealed, and all will be invited to tailgate with their own team members, enjoying their own food and drink.

Reservations must be made by calling Linda at 330-743-2589, ext. 125 or emailing her at . Registration will be closed at noon on the day of the event. MVHS must register a minimum of three teams to conduct the race.

Teams are encouraged to create a truly distinctive vehicle name for their entry and share it on social media with #amazinghistoryrace2020.
