What exactly is the Wanna Ride

Scavenger Hunt Fundraiser?

The Wanna Ride Scavenger Hunt Fundraiser is a unique event that combines a memorial ride in the Snowy Range with an exciting scavenger/treasure hunt. Participants are given a mission list on the morning of the ride at the designated "Starting Location." These missions can range from taking photos to finding hidden treasures along the way.

 For example, one mission might be to reenact the famous Crane Kick from the movie Karate Kid in front of Albany Lodge. The photo must include Albany Lodge to be valid, and completing this mission could earn you 400 points. Each mission is assigned a different point value, so participants have the opportunity to accumulate points throughout the event.

 It's worth noting that not all missions are worth points. Some missions are designed to lead participants to special prize locations. The first person to find the prize location wins the prize associated with that mission.

 At the end of the ride, participants present their photos to the judges at the "Finish Location," where points are tallied. The participant with the most points is declared the winner. After the ride, a complimentary lunch is provided to all participants.

 But the excitement doesn't stop there! Following lunch, there are even more FUNdraising activities to enjoy. These include a thrilling live auction, a punch box filled with amazing prizes, raffles, a 50/50 draw, and so much more.

 It's a day packed with exhilarating rides, thrilling adventures, valuable treasures, and unforgettable memories.
