LAKE COUNTY – Over Labor Day weekend, Girl Scouts of Northern California will be running a fun program for girls in grades six through 12.

This exciting and challenging event is called the “Amazing Race.” If you're familiar with the TV show, it's a challenge race, but instead of traveling around the world and winning a million dollar prize, this race will have 13 teams of four travel to many Northern California Counties participating in fun challenges. One leg of the race is being held right here in Lake County.
 
The Girl Scout version of the Amazing Race has been run for several years now, but mostly in Sonoma County.

This year, the program team from Girl Scouts of Northern California is trying to highlight other areas, especially Lake County. Girls and adults from the Bay Area and other areas of Northern California will come to Lake County and experience this wonderful area.

One day during the three-day weekend, teams will participate in challenges at the fairgrounds, Yoxagoi Orchard, Clear Lake State Park and Darling's Vitamin Connection.
 
If you're out and about this weekend, look for the Girl Scouts competing in challenges and wish them good luck!
