A small but enthusiastic group of neighbors submitted completed scavenger hunt entries into the drawing for gift certificates from local businesses. A few consisted of parent/child teams, while most appeared to be individuals. Some went beyond the initial required 10 steps, providing additional background information about The Arrangement (the building initially a Mobil Station, then a Gas Town location), Amalfi’s (the mural artist originally from Detroit), and the fact that the St Andrew’s Cross flag of Scotland is also known as The Saltire (an X-shaped cross).
Many entries included comments about how much they enjoyed getting around the neighborhood to spots not normally on their typical walking paths.
Stay tuned for another “walkabout hunt” in 2022. Perhaps you’ll be lucky enough to enter the winner’s circle as did those listed below—each awarded a $25 gift certificate, courtesy of BWNA, for use in shopping at local businesses.
Congratulations to the following winners of our 2021 Neighborhood Walkabout Scavenger Hunt!
