HOW TO PLAY
1

Before the game, tie colored ribbon markers along a safe trail loop, each one hiding a written clue pointing toward the next marker.

2

Split players into small teams and give each team a copy of the first clue.

3

Teams follow the trail marker by marker, solving each clue to find the next ribbon along the path.

4

Adult supervisors can post themselves partway along the route to check answers and keep teams on course.

5

The first team to follow every marker correctly and reach the final hidden prize wins the hunt.
