Quick! What are you doing tomorrow?

Here's something you can do to try to celebrate the City: The Ravenchase "Great L.A. Chase". It appears to be like the Amazing Race, or locally, like Race/LA. It's tomorrow at 2pm (but we're not exactly sure where it starts - unless they contact you once you pay).

For a $30 fee, here's what you get (via their site):
If you've been waiting to run your own amazing race, to find your own grail and to crack your own code, this is the chase for you! Our staff personally greets each group at the start of the race, explains the rules of the game and gives each team a hand made treasure map, clues on parchment scrolls and a bag of cool gadgets (like black lights to see clues written in invisible ink). Teams can travel in any direction they like around the city. Actors are also planted along the course, to interact with and help the teams. All the answers and puzzle pieces along the course will lead them to a secret end location, where prizes are awarded to the top three teams.

It's a beginner/intermediate level, but if you have a group, it could get expensive. Not sure if it's worth it, but it might be cool to check out! (They also do private events: perhaps an LA blogosphere bloggers challenge? Something that Mike may be inclined to help devise.)
