The Great Christmas Light Race

  • Riverstone Church 2700 State Street Bismarck, ND, 58503 United States (map)

The Great Christmas Light Race is a scavenger hunt for all ages! Choose your team (whoever you can fit in your car) and get ready to race against the clock to find the most Christmas Light displays before time is up!

Here’s how it works: this scavenger hunt is app-based, which means at least one person on your team will need a smartphone with a camera to participate. The app we’re using is called “Actionbound” and is available in the iOS App Store and Google Play Store for free. If you need help finding or installing the app, Maggie and Jessi will be happy to assist you any time prior to the event!*

On the night of the race, we will all gather in our vehicles in the parking lot prior to 6:00 PM. Our race volunteers will distribute a paper flyer to each car with instructions and the QR code to scan in the Actionbound App that will connect your team to the race.

The race begins promptly at 6:00 PM! Your team will drive around town in an attempt to gather the most points for selfies or group photos taken with certain types of Christmas light displays.

Everyone should be back to the church by 7:30 PM for hot cocoa, treats, and a special devotion time led by Pastor Sam. Then it’s time for the awards ceremony and prize distribution!

We hope you’ll be able to join us for this fun Christmas event, which will take the place of a December movie night. We can’t wait to have fun and make memories together with you!

*Please note: we won’t be able to assist with app downloads the night of the event. Please make sure you ask us ahead of time so we can help you participate in The Great Christmas Light Race!
