10th Annual Local Lore and Legends Scavenger Hunt

Northampton Dollars for Scholars
10th Annual Local Lore and Legends Scavenger Hunt
(show what you know, learn what you don't)
 
Saturday, October 3, 2015, from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm
Less than 2 mile walking course
Start and Finish at Union Station, Strong Ave. Northampton
 
Join us for a fun scavenger hunt to solve clues about the background story related to interesting downtown Northampton locations. The theme is scholarly and trivial knowledge about your home town. The entire proceeds fund college scholarships for Northampton residents.
 
Register your team of four to find locations in downtown Northampton by solving trivia questions with a local connection. Prizes for team category winners include gift certificates from local businesses and each participating team member receives a cloth shopping bag. Suggested Registration fee - $200 per team
 
Several local businesses have already covered the cost of team registrations, but are looking for participants to fill the team slots. Put together a team and represent your school or organization at no personal cost. We also welcome teams to fully or partially fund their registration by collecting donations from your community.
 
Our goals for this event are to increase knowledge about Northampton, awareness of Dollars for Scholars mission, and raise money for Northampton student scholarships. For this tenth anniversary we would like to get at least one team from each of the Northampton schools.
