We had so many accusations being thrown around about cheating in this game 😂 in the end they all had fun.
We are on the look out for new stops and activity suggestions for our up and coming races in Taupo ❤️
If you have any suggestions please flick me through a pm. Or if you would like your store/activity included in a race.
Races are run on a Satuday or Sunday from 11am - 5pm.
It could be as simple as a team collecting a clue from you, completing an activity or allowing us to place a q.r code or clue on your window ❤️.
