MERRICK JEWISH CENTRE ISSUES “CASTING CALL” FOR AMAZING PASSOVER CHALLENGE

The Merrick
Jewish Centre has issued a casting call for its upcoming reality-tv-show-themed
event, The Amazing Passover Challenge, modeled on TV’s The Amazing Race.

 



Families are invited to participate in the
Amazing Passover Challenge, which is scheduled for Sunday, 3/10/13 from 10am-1pm (registration starts at 9:30am), beginning and ending at the
Merrick Jewish Centre.
Similar to the TV reality show, in which multiple teams race around the globe
to 'amazing' locations for the chance to win $1 million, in the Amazing
Passover Challenge, multiple teams of families will travel around the local
area to ‘amazing’ locations for a chance to win great raffle prizes including
tickets to an upcoming NY Yankees game.

 



The Amazing Passover Challenge will comprise a
series of Passover-themed events in which participants must not only complete a
challenge at each location but also will answer Passover trivia questions in
order to receive their clue to the next destination. As in the TV show, activities
will include feats of athleticism, food challenges and more. All activities
will relate to the Passover theme, and all proceeds from the event will benefit
the Kosher Food Pantry in Massapequa.

 



Each team must include at least one adult who
drives. Families must pre-register in order to participate. The cost is $18 per
team for those who register on or before February 24th and $25 per
team after that date. The entry fee includes a t-shirt for each family member,
kosher lunch and raffle prizes.
