Durango, CO: The City of Durango will be hosting a city-wide scavenger hunt starting Monday, May 22 at 8 a.m. through Friday May 26 at 5 p.m.
Five rocks will be hidden at different points of interest around the city, with one clue per rock location posted to one of our social media channels. If you find a rock, take a picture with it, and share it. Don’t forget to tag @CityofDurango and #CODhunt so we can let others know when a rock has been found.
Once found, rocks can be returned to City Hall at 949 East Second Avenue.
Prizes will be randomly selected and include a city swag bag, a three-month membership to the Rec Center, a Season pass to Lake Nighthorse, a Library gift bag, and a $20 pre-paid parking card.
The rules are:
- Rocks are only hidden on public property. Do not trespass when searching.
- All rocks have been hidden outside.
- Rocks will be in locations that are easy to access. No need to stomp through weeds/grass, climb on equipment or property, etc.
- One rock can be claimed per family.
Clues will be released each day at 8 a.m. and will be posted to:
- @CityofDurango on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter
- @GetAroundDurango on Facebook
- @DurangoParksandRec on Facebook and Instagram
- @DurangoPulicLibrary in Facebook and Instagram
Don’t have social media? After 9 a.m. clues can be picked up Durango Public Library at 1900 East Third Avenue or the Durango Recreation Center at 2700 Main Avenue.
Clues to a special silver rock will be sent out on Wednesday for National Scavenger Hunt Day.
Happy hunting!
