The scavenger hunt will run from July 1st through July 18th.
This year in lieu of the traditional Blackberry Festival, the Caldwell Chamber of Commerce is organizing a digitally interactive scavenger hunt! The scavenger hunt app can be downloaded onto either an Apple or an Android smart phone. Individual players and/or teams will follow specified prompts to different attractions, businesses and landmarks in the various townships that comprise Caldwell County. Competitors will earn points for all of the clues and challenges that they complete using the designated app. These points can be obtained through a variety of ways including submitting photos or videos, completing forms, answering multiple choice questions, scanning QR codes, and checking in at certain locations. Participants have the ability to complete the challenges at their own pace - race to finish or take a break and pause the app to spend more time at a specific location. A leaderboard will tally the scores of each individual or team, so you will always know where you stand compared to the other contestants. The five teams or individuals that earn the greatest number of points will be entered to win a multitude of wonderful prizes, including gift certificates, prize packs, and more! The grand prize will consist of a new gas grill valued at $1,000 provided by Blue Ridge Energy and will be awarded to the individual or team that accumulates the most points!
Download the Blackberry Bustle Scavenger Hunt Event today through the “Eventzee” app in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and get registered to join in on the excitement! The event code will be “Blackberry” and the game will be live from July 1st through the 18th. Grab a friend and explore all that Caldwell County has to offer!
