SMF ROAD RALLY
The SMF Road Rally takes place on Saturday morning, with its Starting Line at Sandhills Community College and the Finish line at the SMF host hotel, the Pine Crest Inn. Rally participants enjoy a 65 mile course through the Moore County and Sandhills area and they are provided with a list of questions to answer during their drive. The questions are designed to challenge the participants about landmarks, local flavor, and other items that are along the roadways of their morning adventure. Keen powers of observation are critical for Rally success!
A new route and questions are selected each year by Rally Commissioner and SMF VP, Chris Smith. Chris is a long time resident and frequent driver of our area and designs the route to showcase our beautiful Sandhills scenery as well as challenge the driver and navigators as they enjoy our highways and byways.
