Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Hunt work? 
Teams try to "perform" or find as many items on a Task List as possible within 2 hours. Each team must provide selfies/videos of the items on the list or collect various physical items. Each Task List item has a specific point value and the team accumulating the most points wins! (Note: This is not your childhood scavenger hunt!) No previous knowledge of the Hunt area is necessary as you will be given a boundary map which will lead you along the way. 

                              (Example of a task: Have your team sing a song with a complete stranger!)
Is this a race?
Although this is a technically a “competition”, we discourage participants from running.  If one member of your team is unable to run your entire team MAY not to be able to complete the Hunt. Although there is a lot of walking, There is plenty of time to complete all tasks within the 2-hour time period. Now, whether your team has the nerve to complete all the tasks… well that is a completely different story!

 What do I bring?
Sneakers, comfortable clothes, water bottle and each team must have at least 1 digital camera or phone with battery charged and plenty of memory.
 
Where is the Hunt?

The Hunt starts under the Gazebo outside the HISTORIC DOWntowNER (10 S. New River Drive EAst, Fort Lauderdale) and teams compete along the Riverwalk and Las Olas Blvd in downtown Fort Lauderdale. Here is the general Hunt area:

How do I buy tickets?
Register for the Hunt on our registration page. After registration, you will receive information with additional instructions by e-mail.  Payment will be made at orientation on the day of the Hunt. We will accept walk-ups only if there is room available.

When do I find out ANY ADDITIONAL DETAILS?
After you register on-line, you will be e-mailed the start time and location and other important instructions.

What time do I have to be at the meeting place?
You will have to be at the meeting place 30 minutes before the Hunt to participate in orientation.  At orientation you will purchase your ticket, fill out your official registration form and be provided detailed instructions and materials about the Hunt. If you are running late, you can still start the Hunt, but you will have less time to complete it.

How long will the Hunt last?
The actual Hunt lasts 2 hours. There is an additional 30 minutes before the Hunt for orientation and 15 minutes post-Hunt to calculate and verify the point totals and determine the winner.  There is also an optional POST-Hunt party after at the Historic downtowner which is next to the starting point.
 
How big can my team be?
Hunt teams can range from 4-8 people. If you join alone or with less than 4, you will be joined to a team. If you come with more than 8 people you will be split into at least 2 teams.

Do you Hunt in bad weather?
This is Florida and short of a hurricane, we Hunt rain or shine. If we are ever forced to cancel a hunt, we will send an e-mail AT LEAST an hour before the start of the Hunt.  

How should I dress for the hunt?
Be sure to wear comfortable shoes since you will be on your feet (or maybe a boat) for 2 hours.
What types of Hunts are available?
We offer separate Hunts for either adults, kids or family.  A kids Hunt is for participants 17 years old and younger although each team must be accompanied by someone over 18. A family Hunt is just that… each team is comprised of family members. More than one family can be combined to form a team. We also offer themed Hunts and private Hunts.

Can I bring kids to an adult hunt?
Yes, they certainly can participate but use your judgment as to whether they will be able to keep up with the rest of the team.  We reserve the right to form a smaller team so as not to slow down another team.
