ACE Around the World at Worlds of Fun, Kansas City, Missouri

There were shirts, signs, wheels, bits of track, and more for everyone to spend their $53 in fake money (Worlds of Fun is 53 years old) bidding on.

Our only rule is you can only purchase one item with your funny money.  What that does is once someone has won an item if they have any extra cash they can give it to whoever they want so that person can bid with.  It makes for a really fun part of the event as people rush around securing the needed funds as the auctioneer keeps the bidding going.

With a ton of goodies and tons of free cash to play with the auction everyone has a great time and most come away with something.

As Danielle is a HUGE Haunt fan she was thrilled to have walked away from the auction with this Haunt sign.

Once lunch was over it was time to head into Worlds of Fun to enjoy the park as well as to participate in the ACE Around the World Scavenger Hunt.  Teams were given a list of items that they needed to photograph such as a picture of one or ore of the Heart of America Regional Representative Team, a ride that rotates, counter clockwise, or a picture of these gnomes that have secretly popped up around Worlds of Fun.  The team to get the most points in the scavenger hunt got their own 5 lap exclusive ride time on Patriot that evening.  With such a cool prize there were teams of enthusiasts roaming the park going through the clues, snapping tons of pictures, and having fun.
