WHERE DO I CHECK-IN?
On the day of the event, check-in between 10:30am-1:00pm across the street from the Beaver County Chamber of Commerce in Quay Park in Downtown Beaver. Then, follow your map’s course depending on which route you’ve purchased: North or South. You do NOT have to show up right at 10:30. You may check-in ANYTIME between 10:30-1:00 as the event runs until 4:00 PM.
WHERE DO I END THE SCAVENGER HUNT?
That’s the cool part - our course takes you in somewhat of a circle, so you END where you BEGAN, at Quay Park - we can’t wait to hear about your experiences and take your picture as a memory of your trip.
WHERE DO I PARK?
You can find street parking along Third Street or Beaver’s side streets. No meters! There is also a FREE parking garage at the courthouse (810 Third Street). But, you’ll be taking the car on this hunt, so no need to worry about long-term parking. As for parking at each stop? You’ll find street parking, parking lots, etc. The parking scenarios will be different for each location.
SHOULD I BRING ANYTHING?
Just yourself, a carload of fun people, a mask (yep - if a business requires it, you’ll want one on hand), smiles, laughter, and all that jazz. However, there will be prizes for costumes, decorated vehicles and, well, who knows. So check your email instructions closer to the event!
DO I NEED TO WEAR A MASK?
You do. Thank you for asking. As our event’s purpose is to support our small businesses, who need us now more than ever, we would kindly ask you to wear a mask as per the request of our businesses. Please also remember to socially distance during the event and sanitize those hands. Hand sanitizer is the scent everyone is wearing these days.
DOES THIS EVENT SELL OUT?
Yeppers! As a courtesy to our participating businesses, we limit the number of tickets sold so they have ample time to prepare for you!
MY CHILD IS COMING - DO THEY NEED A TICKET?
If they’re under 3 (or are just along for the ride and won’t be tasting, engaging in activities, etc.) they’re free!
I'M GLUTEN FREE, VEGETARIAN, VEGAN, KETO, PALEO, {enter particular dietary preference here}. WILL I BE MADE AWARE OF INGREDIENTS if on a Foodie Route?
We cannot guarantee that the nibbles/noshes will gluten-free/vegetarian/vegan, etc. It's very difficult to accommodate individual dietary needs for an event this size, so please use your best judgment when it comes to sampling.
