Kings and queens of the road • Winners of the FunFest road rally include (l-r): Trevor and Tiffany Stelling, Kray Funk, Mark and Shayla Bartak, Riley Funk and Victor Sikes. The Stelling team earned 54 points to edge out the second-place group.
A 45-mile cruise between Ewing, Orchard and Clearwater drew 15 teams to compete in the FunFest road rally, sponsored by the Summerland Advocate-Messenger and Ewing Young Members Club.
Knowledge of each of the town's businesses and landmarks came in handy.
A background in history may have been helpful, too, as several clues referred to the past.
Having a lead foot didn't make a difference. Contestants simply needed to answer questions and snap photographs to document each stop.
Stops along the route included Wilbur-Ellis, Corner Hardware and More, Orchard swimming pool and Rex Theater, in Orchard; The Office, Bearinger Tax and Accounting, LLC, Hi-Way Mart and L-Bar-B in Clearwater; the championship sign in Schmidt Park, Welcome to Ewing sign, West End Mini Mart, Anson Electric, Inc., Ewing Family Foods, The Ewing Bank, the Savidge Brothers mural, Sanders American Legion Post 214 and DWs Pub, in Ewing.
The Stelling team took top honors, earning 54 points. Team members included Shayla and Mark Funk, Tiffany and Trevor Stelling, Kray Funk, Riley Funk and Victor Sikes.
Eagle Eyes, a.k.a. Blake and Katie Cunningham, Natasha Koenig and Chris Dewalt tallied 51 points, finishing second.
Finishing third were Lisa Funk, Holly Pospichal, CJ Bartak, Rachael Grey and Adam Thramer. They comprised the Kickin' asphalt team.
