Online Scavenger Hunt - Week 2 - Neighborhoods

posted on Wednesday, October 7, 2015

Fill Your Travel Pack | Cedar Falls Tourism Bureau It's week 2 of our online scavenger hunt! How familiar are you with Cedar Falls? Familiarize yourself with our Neighborhoods and then answer three questions to enter our weekly drawing. 

We’ll have a winner each week in October. At the end of the scavenger hunt, we’ll have a final, random drawing from all entries for a chance to win a gift basket from the Cedar Falls Visitor Center and Scratch Cupcakery. It's quick, free and fun!

To participate in our online scavenger hunt, find three items on our website and then enter by using our new Travel Pack! Cedar Falls naturally falls into many different Neighborhoods for shopping, dining and activities. Can you identify the following Neighborhoods? 

  1. Hilton Garden Inn is located in which Neighborhood? (Hint: go to Places to Stay and then Hotels and Motels. Did you find the answer under the address of the listing?)
  2. In which Neighborhood is The Sheep Baatique located? (Hint: go to Things to Do and then Creative Activities)
  3. On October 24, the wcfsymphony's woodwind quintet will perform at the Hearst Center for the Arts. In which Neighborhood is the Hearst Center located?​ (Hint: go to Upcoming Events. The calendar is color-coded by neighborhood. Click the event and then click Add to Travel Pack located below the event's address)

When you’ve found an answer, click on Add to Travel Pack located at the bottom of the description for that hotel, business or event. By doing so, the text will turn green and that means you've added it to your Travel Pack. When you have all three answers added to your Travel Pack, open your Travel Pack at the top of the web page and click on Email Your Travel Pack. Enter (or copy and paste) our email address, visit@cedarfallstourism.org, into the To field. Then click Send to email your Travel Pack to our office.
 

On October 14, the winner from week 2 will be drawn, at random, from all correct Travel Packs. To be entered, we’ll need to receive your emailed Travel Pack by 11:59 pm, October 13, 2015.  

  • Your email must be a Travel Pack submission from our website and contain all three CORRECT items/answers.  
  • Only one entry per email address per weekly scavenger hunt.
  • You don’t need to be from Cedar Falls to enter and win – share the scavenger hunt with friends and family. But, you must be 18 years of age or older to enter.
  • We’ll notify you by email if you’ve won.
  • We won’t use your email for any other reason than for this contest. However, we’d like to invite you to sign up for our monthly Travel News eNewsletter and/or subscribe to our What’s New blog (and receive our blog posts by email).
  • You have several chances to enter: Enter every week of the scavenger hunt. At the end of the scavenger hunt we’ll have a final, random drawing from all entries for a chance to win a gift basket from the Cedar Falls Visitor Center and Scratch Cupcakery. If you enter each of the four weeks, you will have four entries in the final drawing.
