This is a free group run and walk, a self-paced urban scavenger hunt of sorts, in which participants get to as many checkpoints as they can in the hour to collect raffle tickets for awesome prizes.
Here’s how it works:
You check out the maps, which are unveiled at 6p, to see where you can collect raffle tickets. Then you go off on your own, with a group of friends, or with folks you’ve just met. (Everyone is very welcoming.) Strollers and friendly dogs on leashes are invited, too.
Return to the event site by 7p to listen for your raffle numbers to see if you win anything, and enjoy a free beer (if you’re 21 and have your ID) while listening to great music and chatting it up. It’s a fun atmosphere and you should definitely check it out!
This month’s sponsors include Widmer Brothers Brewing, Mizuno, Garmin, Freshii, Nathan Hydration, the Cascade Lakes Relay, Feetures, Solemates, Franz Bakery … and at least 10 more!
