On Sunday, May 25, dozens of Linden Hills lovers will participate in the first-ever PicnicPalooza Scavenger Hunt. Here’s all the info you need to know.

When is the scavenger hunt? 

On Sunday, May 25, scavenger hunters will meet at the bandshell by 11am to get their clue set, then take off at 11am for the hunt. All teams must return their clue sheet by 2pm to PicnicPalooza. Prizes will be awarded at 3pm.

How big should my team be?

Teams should be 4-8 people total — kids included. 

Do I need a team?

You can register a full team of 4-8, or we’ll pair you up with a crew you’ll love. Trust me, we’re excellent matchmakers! 

How will you know to pair me up with a team? 

You’ll receive a form after signup with questions about the makeup of your team and how we can match you with folks that share your life stage or interests.

What is the cost to participate?
Tickets for PicnicPalooza start at $8 for general entry and a drink, and a scavenger hunt add-on is $5 per person.

What do I need for the hunt?

Mostly, good walking shoes and a great attitude! And in order to best track your progress, we ask that one team member:

• Gives us their phone number

• Follows @picniclindenhills on Instagram

• Shares their Instagram handle

How much walking will it be?

The most efficient route will be between 2-3 miles, with most clues clustered to help speed things along. Our goal is for most teams to get 80% of the clues in the time allotted. 

Can my team split up?

Unless one of your team members (child or adult) needs to run home for a nap, we ask that you all stick together and get each clue as a team. However, it’s not necessary for an entire team to go INTO a business to get a clue — use your judgment to help them prioritize paying customers on a weekend day.
