Tyrone Improvement Group presents Tyrone Amazing History Race! 

The Tyrone Amazing History Race is a challenge event that will take place on September, 14 2024

In 2021, the Tyrone Improvement Group was formed as a group of business owners and citizens who want to see Tyrone thrive. Formed in 2021, TIG has raised money for the town itself, scholarships, families in need and veterans as well as many other things.  Some of the events and additions you have seen around Tyrone has been hosted or sponsored by TIG, such as the Tyrone Food Truck Festival, flower baskets, veterans banners, spring clean up, and more.

The Tyrone Amazing History Race is a challenge, similar to the Amazing Race as seen on TV.  Teams (maximum of four participants to a team) or individuals will navigate through town, interact with locals, and perform physical and mental challenges that often highlight aspects of the town's culture, history, and economy.  Funds that are raised by this event will go towards TIG’s general fund to continue to improve Tyrone and support those who are in need.  Open donations will be available if you click on donate at the top of the page.
