Inspired by The Amazing Race, the EmergyRace is a unique adventure where teams of two race on foot across a designated area of the City of Erie, tackling fun and interactive challenges at various checkpoints hosted by local businesses and community partners. It’s teamwork, fun, and purpose—all rolled into one unforgettable day.
EmergyRace was created in 2023 to honor Kyle Swain, a beloved former EmergyCare EMT and Communications Center Dispatcher. Kyle bravely followed his dream to serve in the U.S. Army but tragically passed away during basic training due to a heat related illness. With the help of Kyle’s family and friends, we carry forward his legacy through this exciting, purpose-driven event.
By joining the EmergyRace, participants become part of something bigger—strengthening community health and safety, honoring Kyle Swain’s legacy, and helping fund EMS training and life-saving equipment that prepares our crews to answer the call when every second matters.
