About this event
To initiate the 2021 Christmas season and to assist people to get out of the house after this past year, the Lone Star Region of SCCA is sponsoring a Christmas Tree Social Road Rally to the Seiler Christmas Tree Farm south of Seguin. This rally will start from Bluebonnet Jeep on Interstate 35 East in New Braunfels and will wind through south Central Texas to the Tree Farm. Along the way we will travel on state, rural, and country roads. These roads are paved but many do not have center stripes. This is a non-speed event but you will be given historical notes along the route and you will be asked to answer questions about the route at various points. At the Seiler Christmas Tree Farm you may buy the Christmas tree of your choice or just enjoy the scenry. Trees are four to nine feet in height and sell for $6.00 a foot. The Rally will then leave the tree farm and continue to Kirby's Korner in Sequin to enjoy their famous burgers and malts and to discuss cars and the rally.
This is a non-speed social Road Rally whose route will be along paved roads although some have not been paved very recently. Registration between 1:00 and 2:00 PM will be at Bluebonnet Jeep so come early and look over their fine vehicles. After a safety briefing at 1:45, cars will be released at intervals to proceed on their senic journey. It should take between 90 minutes and two hours for this Road Rally as you learn about the history of Central Texas. Questions will be asked along the way but awards will not be based on questions or on a cars finish position. This Road Rally is meant to be a fun social outing and a learning event. Children are welcome but insurance requires that they have a waiver signed by both parents. Minors may be either navigators or drivers.
The Social Road Rally fee for this event is $25.00 (the same for both SCCA members and non-SCCA members).
If you would like addition information, contact the rally organizer, Ken McElroy, at aggsip67@yahoo.com or at 512-695-9410.
The GOAL of the SCCA is to Have Fun with Cars!
