The Amazing Race Yuma County is a premier networking and fundraising event hosted by the Yuma County Chamber of Commerce. This event is not affiliated with CBS, World Race Productions, or The Amazing Race.
Teams will be given an initial starting point and registration time. Start times will be staggered at set intervals based on the number of teams participating. Since the winner is determined by total elapsed time (including penalties) rather than who finishes first, each team's official time will be tracked from their individual start to finish.
At the starting location, teams will receive their first challenge. The moment they begin, their start time will be recorded. Upon completing this challenge, they will receive a checklist of ten designated locations they must visit to complete the race. Teams will then drive to their first assigned location.
At each location, teams must successfully complete a unique challenge. Once completed, a location representative will initial their checklist and provide an envelope containing puzzle pieces.
After finishing all ten challenges, teams will head to the finish line. Before officially completing the race, they must assemble a puzzle using the pieces collected at each location. Once the puzzle is correctly completed, their final time will be recorded.
The team with the fastest total race time—including any penalties—wins. Prizes will be awarded to the top finishers!
Teams must follow all applicable laws at all times, with a strong emphasis on traffic safety. Any participant caught violating a traffic law will be immediately disqualified. Additionally, reckless driving—including excessive speed in parking lots, improper parking, squealing tires, or any other unsafe behavior—may result in severe time penalties or disqualification.
At challenge locations, teams are expected to be respectful of both the business and those around them. Running is strictly prohibited. Doors should be opened and closed with care, and if customers are present, teams must conduct themselves professionally to avoid disrupting normal business operations.
