'Petpalooza Scavenger Hunt' In Chestnut Hill To Help SPCA

CHESTNUT HILL, PHILADELPHIA — Three Chestnut Hill businesses are teaming up for a pet-focused scavenger hunt that will benefit the SPCA.

The Petpalooza Scavenger Hunt is being held by Villavillekula, Zipf’s Candies and Busy Bee Toys.

Scavenger Hunt participants will stop at one of the three sponsoring businesses to pick up a map to being searching for 12 blue paw prints that will be hidden in the three businesses and out on the sidewalk on the east side of the 8400 and 8500 blocks of Germantown Avenue — the same side of the street as the sponsoring businesses.

All kids who are participating will get a treat and a free raffle ticket for a chance to win a gift basket.

The winner will be randomly chosen on Friday night and will be contacted via telephone. The winner does not have to be present at time of drawing.

In celebration of Petpalooza, participants are asked bring donations of pet food to be given to the SPCA. The sponsoring businesses will have collection bins and will take the food to the SPCA after the event.

The SPCA is in desperate need of wet and dry dog and cat food, as well as rabbit/guinea pig food and bedding material.
