June 4, 2023 (La Mesa) – You’re invited to bring friends, form a team with a creative name and vie for prizes in fun challenges at stations across Grossmont Center in La Mesa on Friday, July 28 from 4 to 7 p.m. It’s all part of “Team on a Trek,” an event to raise funds for the nonprofit San Diego Oasis Learning & Wellness Centers. The fun will also include music, entertainment and awards.
What is “Team on a Trek?”
“It’s essentially an Amazing Race type of event, but for all ages and levels,” says Oasis committee member Claudia Erickson. Sponsors as well as teams are sought.
What might those challenges include?
“Some of the activities will tie into classes that are offered at Oasis. For instance, Oasis offers free or low-cost tech support services, so we will have a sample of online scams that are popular right now and see if people can guess which ones are legit and which are not,” says Erickson. “There will be a challenge to try a line dance sequence--slightly physical but not strenuous. If we get Prevue Formal and Bridal shop, we hope that one challenge could be to have one team member (female or male) get into a bridal gown. It will be a mix of fun and trivia throughout the event.” 
What can participants win?
Prizes will include products and gift certificates from stores in the Grossmont Center regional shopping mall.
How can our team participate?
Teams are encouraged to show some spirit. “This is a perfect opportunity for a company or service organization to wear their company gear, get a little competition going and even get silly. There will be awards like best costume/dress, best team name, most spirited etc. We hope to see multi-generational teams come together,” says Erickson.
The cost for a team of two to six people is $150.
