Bell's 2022 Make the Bed Challenge

Since no one could quite be sure what the situation would be like this spring for large in-person gatherings, we traded in our big spectator event on the street (Bell’s Big Bed Race) for a more socially-distanced, all ages and abilities, super fun relay team challenge.

Get in on the Fun!

Gather your team (of five people) now so you’re ready to sign up online when REGISTRATION OPENS SATURDAY, APRIL 2.  Each team will select a time slot from available dates in April to show up for their individual, one-at-a-time relay-style race against the clock to make a bed, complete with sheets, pillows, and comforter. Races will happen in the parking lot near Collusion Tap Works, 105 S. Howard Ave., York. Our event videographer and resident photographers will be on hand to capture the action and excitement you bring, and then share the fun on Bell’s social media all month long.

What You Need to Bring to the Challenge

Yourselves! (Well, and your teammates and costumes and stuff) We provide the bed, plus sheets, pillows, blankets, and comforters to make the bed.  (See FAQ below)

Many Ways to Win!

Fastest Team, Most Creative Theme & Costumes, Winners by Age Group, Most Money Raised, and who knows how many more categories. Engage your network to vote and donate for your team.

Official timekeepers will guard the times for each team, keeping them a secret until Friday, May 6, when all winners will be announced and trophies presented during Give Local York.
