Frederick County Parks and Recreation is partnering with Runners' Retreat to bring a fun twist to one of their Thursday evening group runs! The Halloween Scavenger Hunt Fun Run is a great way to celebrate the spooky season while getting some exercise. Participants of all ages will run/walk while searching for Halloween-themed items along the way. Teams will have one hour to run around, find and take photos of items then return to Runners’ Retreat. After, we will have a social get together at The Cider House (drinks and food on your own) and announce the winning team who will receive a prize!
Details:
-
Teams will consist of up to 2-4 runners/walkers.
-
Each team will receive a list of items with assigned points
-
Please arrive early to check-in and receive your checklist. Last minute instructions and the GO signal will be given at 6 p.m.
-
Teams must stay together for the entire run. Once you find an item, take a photo and be sure to include your team members in the photo.
-
Some items have BONUS points, so be sure to try to score extra!
-
Make sure at least one person on the team will be running with a running watch and a phone (with space for photos!).
-
Start your watch as soon as you leave the store and don't hit stop until you return! Be sure to let the event leaders know your team's final distance.
