Our club’s first photo rally was a huge success thanks to the exceptional creative and organizational skills of Chris and Jennie Branston. Twenty three cars, 45 people and one dog drove throughout eastern Collier County guided by the Branston’s collection of nine photos to identify and 25 rally questions to answer about various points along the drive. Between 9:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m., we drove from Naples to Ave Maria to Everglades City and Chocoloskee Island, learning a little Florida history, enjoying the drive and being in our cars, taking in the magnificent day and loving the challenge of scoring high on this unique treasure hunt!
Our final stop was at the Royal Palm Golf Estates clubhouse in eastern Naples where we enjoyed socializing, a relaxing lunch and recognition time for the most observant of the group!
There is no doubt that everyone came out a winner that day, for all had a fun- filled, challenging time. Prizes donated by Porsche of Naples and PCA Everglades and were awarded to the top eight high scoring teams as well as our tail end scoring partnership.
