Awards will be given for cumulated points from all Exchange Points. The winning team s name will be added to the award plaque and will keep it for a year, with bragging rights! For those teams with a need for speed, the fastest place team will also receive an award at the finish. We are also encouraging teams to show their SPIRIT! The team that brought something special to the race will be rewarded at the finish with a Spirit Award. The winning team will exhibit the most team pride and sense of fun and will be a proud recipient of a special traveling trophy. Judging criteria will include showing your spirit on the vehicle, in your costumes, singing at the staging areas, etc. Be creative, unique, and celebrate the fun of the eco-trek race experience!
