Did You See That? A Scavenger Hunt In New London's Historic Waterfront

Join in the fun as OutCT hosts a scavenger hunt in the Historic Waterfront District of New London on Saturday, September 21, 2013 from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Teams will follow clues throughout the district as they seek, hunt, photograph, and complete challenges at local landmarks and businesses to win prizes.  

The hunt begins at The Garde Arts Center on State Street and ends at O’Neill’s Brass Rail on Bank Street, which will be hosting an After Party. The cost to enter is $40 per team or $50 on the day of race. Register online at www.outct.org. You must be 18 years or older to participate. The winning team will receive a cash prize!

The details: 

Check-in and registration will be from 11:15-11:55 a.m. at Garde Arts Center on Saturday, September 21, with a shotgun start at 12:00 p.m.  Clues will lead the participants through downtown businesses and landmarks completing challenges at each site in order to get next clue.  

Teams will consist of 2-4 people and government-issued photo ID (i.e. driver’s license or state ID card) will be required for all participants at check-in. Every team will need a name along with names and ages of all participants. 

Registration fee includes a team fee, one drink ticket for each participant on the team, and access to the buffet at the After Party at the Brass Rail. All items needed for the scavenger hunt will be provided; however, remember to bring a camera/camera phone to capture the shenanigans. 

Teams that successfully complete the hunt will each receive a gift bag for participating in the hunt.  

The After Party at O’Neill’s Brass Rail starts at 2:30 p.m. and goes until late. There will be a $2 cover charge for people who don't participate in the scavenger hunt but who want to attend the After Party. Entertainment includes mud wrestling contest (weather permitting), wet t-shirt (girls)/shorts (guys) contest, drag performers, raffle prizes, and a tea dance.
