FAQ's

What is The Miner's Amazing Race?

Based off of The Amazing Race TV show, we are putting together a fun-filled scavenger hunt around Park City where teams of 4-6 people follow clues to different “pit stops” around town to complete a challenge before moving on in the hunt.  The race is followed by an evening for those 21 and over of food, music, connection and a silent & live auction at the National Ability Center all benefitting Park City football and cheer programs.

Where does the money go?

Every dollar raised supports the Park City football and cheerleading programs. This includes state of the art equipment to keep our players and cheerleaders safe. 

What’s the vibe like?

Think fun, festive, and full of football and cheer spirit! Expect scenic views, creative clues, awesome challenges at each pit stop, and a celebratory finish line and awards party. Theme costumes are encouraged for your team, but not required. 

How do I sign up?

It’s easy! Head to https://parkcitypassingleague.betterworld.org/events/amazing-race to register your team, become a sponsor, and/or sign up for the event at NAC.

How do teams work?

You can have anywhere between 4-6 people on your team to complete the challenges. Participates need to be at least 8 years old and one licensed driver over 18 years old.

Each team is allowed one vehicle per 4-6 participants to get your team to each pit stop. Your car is part of your team! Decorate it!  Have fun! 

Can kids participate?

Absolutely! Kids 8 and over are welcome to join teams as registered participants or cheer from the sidelines.

About the Scavenger Hunt

Wait, is it really a race? 

Actually, no.  But, if you want a friendly competition with other teams, go for it.   

How long is the race?

The race should take approximately 3-4 hours to complete all the challenges.

How does the scavenger hunt work?

Each team is responsible for completing all the challenges. Teams will start at Dozier Field where they will be given their first clue. Your clue will lead you to your first pit stop, where at least 4 people on your team need to complete the assigned challenge. The hosts of the pit stop will determine your completion and give your team their next set of clues. Along the race course will be hydration stations for any snacks and drinks. These hydration stations will also have extra clues for purchase if your team is stumped. Everyone will start and finish at Dozier Field after doing one big loop around Park City. The race begins promptly at 1pm.

What should I bring on race day?

Pack essentials like water, snacks, sunscreen, and sporty clothes. Your support vehicle should also carry extra supplies for the team. 

More Stuff 

Do people dress up? 

Yes! We are awarding 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prizes for Best Team Theme – so work on your costumes and car to go with your Team Name. They aren’t required, but highly encouraged and you may feel left out without one. 

Is there water and food on course?
Water & snacks are available at every Hydration Station. 

Do we meet up with other teams?
Yes!  You will see teams along the way as you compete to complete your challenges.  

What's the after party like? Is there food?
There will be an awards ceremony after the race is finished at Dozier Field.  And then those over 21 years of age can purchase dinner tickets for our evening event at the NAC.  Tickets for the NAC event must be purchased ahead of time and will not be available the day of the event.  If your team members are not old enough to join the evening events, you may give them to an adult of your choice. 

Who can be on a team?
Anyone 8 and older!   If you don’t want to be on a team, you can volunteer on race day, or join us for dinner at the NAC at 6:00 p.m.

Can I bring my dog?
No. For everyone’s safety, please leave your dog at home. 

How can I volunteer or sponsor?

If the scavenger hunt isn’t your thing, we’d love your support as a volunteer or sponsor. Visit our site to sponsor, https://parkcitypassingleague.betterworld.org/events/amazing-race, or email Sunny Pater@sunny.pater81@gmail.com to volunteer.

What is Park City Passing League?

Park City Passing League is a 5 v 5 non-contact football passing league held on Sundays at Dozier Field at Park City High School in the Spring for boys and girls, grades 3-8.

 The goal of Passing League is to provide a fun environment for youth players to learn more about football and prepare them for future play. The emphasis is on instruction and less about winning games. Each game is 50 minutes long, and the kids are coached by the Park City High School football players. 

The League provides food for all 400 players and coaches.  We provide a fun, festive environment with music and announcements, and it is an all-around great time for the kids and families in attendance. Since the League’s inception 6 years ago, interest in football, and the growth of the youth football league in the community has doubled.

Park City Passing League is a 501c3 organization that gives back to the Park City community and beyond through the support of its sponsors and fundraising efforts; the League could not operate without this support. Since 2018, Park City Passing League is proud to have been able to give back in the following ways:

• Donated approximately 100 new top-level helmets to the Park City youth football program over the last three years

• Donated approximately 100 state-of-the-art helmets and shoulder pads to PCHS football, along with other equipment needs

• Provided sideline jackets for the PCHS players for use during cold winter games

• Donated 10 new football helmets to the Salt Lake City West High School football program due to its shortage of helmets and its need for sharing on the sidelines

• Donation of $2,500 for the medical needs of Ogden High School football coach, Erik Thompson, who was diagnosed with ALS

• Donation of $2,500 for the medical needs of Alta High School football player, Jalen Sutton, who suffered a cervical spine injury during a football game in August 2022 https://www.gofundme.com/f/fundraiser-for-jalen-suttons-road-to-recovery/share

• Contribution of $12,000 + each year to the PCHS cheer program for the last 5 years for uniforms, travel to camps and competitions, and equipment

• Contributions for lifting equipment for the PCHS gym

• Spearheaded the Park City High School Dozier Field Digital Scoreboard Campaign, raising over $200, 000, which included a substantial repair and update to the PCHS Baseball scoreboard

• Proud banner-level sponsor of PCHS Baseball 

• Covers the Park City Youth Football player’s gate/entrance fee for all PCHS football games

• Donated $2,500 to the Christian Center Food Bank during the COVID pandemic

The goal of the Park City Passing League is to continue supporting the Park City community and the surrounding area for years to come.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Park City High School’s Scoreboard Fundraising Campaign 

Surpasses Goal – Thanks to Overwhelming Community Support

PARK CITY, UT – The Park City Passing League is thrilled to announce the success of its Digital Scoreboard Campaign, raising more than its $200,000 goal to retire Park City High School’s (PCHS) original scoreboard on Dozier Field. Launched this fall, the campaign received unprecedented support from donors and key partners.

Jess McCurdy, Executive Director of the Park City Passing League, spearheaded the fundraising efforts, working alongside committed parents and with support from PCHS’s Athletic Director, Jamie Sheetz, and Principal, Roger Arbabi. Their combined dedication and the generosity of top donors, The Park Record, Park City Mountain, and the Haloti Ngata Family Foundation as Presenting Dozier Field level partners, propelled the campaign well beyond the half-way point of its goal. Pick Axe level partners, including Stanley, Nexus Power, Baranof Jewelers, Switchback Sports, Riverhorse/Salt Box/Palomino, Patrick and Jennifer McCloskey, and Wade and Margaret Souza, further contributed to the success of the initiative.

Expressing gratitude for the support received, Jess McCurdy, Executive Director of the Park City Passing League, stated, "The overwhelming response from our community and partners has exceeded our expectations. This campaign's success reflects the shared commitment to enhancing the athletic experience for Park City High School students and the entire community."

The funds raised will facilitate the installation of a state-of-the-art Daktronics digital scoreboard on Dozier Field, slated for Spring 2024. This advanced scoreboard will not only replace the existing one but also offer features such as video capabilities, instant replay, athlete highlights, sponsor recognition, and more, elevating the overall experience for event attendees.

Athletic Director Jamie Sheetz stated, "This new digital scoreboard is a game-changer for Park City High School. It will enhance the atmosphere of our sporting events and provide unique learning opportunities for our students, aligning with our commitment to excellence both on and off the field."

The campaign's success also enables updates to the baseball field scoreboard. High school students will have hands-on involvement with the new scoreboard, potentially incorporating it into future project-based learning opportunities through PCCAPS.

The new Dozier Field scoreboard will become a part of numerous high school events, including football, soccer, lacrosse, cheerleading, track, youth leagues, camps, graduation, and student assemblies. Events at Dozier Field bring together the local community, and the new scoreboard will add to the atmosphere, energy, and spirit of PCHS.

Details about the unveiling ceremony, and other events around the new Dozier Field scoreboard will be provided later this spring.

Park City Passing League is a 501c3 flag football league providing a fun environment for youth players to learn more about football and prepare them for future play. Profits help fund state-of-the-art equipment for youth and high school players.
