The Great Geauga West Egg Scavenger Hunt

Happy Spring! Yay to warmer weather! Throughout the month of April, Geauga County Public Library, Geauga West Branch is partnering with parks and businesses in our community to bring a fun activity for you and your family – The Great Geauga West Egg Scavenger Hunt!

Those interested in participating can pick up a scavenger hunt pamphlet at the Geauga West Branch’s lobby or print it directly by clicking on the link below. You will have to search for letters to solve a phrase and they can be found on the large egg cutouts that are placed on windows of businesses or on or near the bulletin board of local parks.

Participants who return their completed scavenger hunt pamphlet will receive a small prize for each child. In addition, their sheets will be entered into a raffle for the grand prize of a $25 gift card to be drawn in May.
