Each year MWGB features a Treasure Hunt (consult schedule for start location/times). This activity is a great way to have some fun with your friends and walk away with a guaranteed prize!
We set up the Treasure Hunt in the horse arena at the north end of the fairgrounds (near Area 51). Participants in the Treasure Hunt will use a metal detector to locate the buried treasure in the arena dirt. Each piece of treasure is a collectible MWGB trackable that is yours to keep! In addition to instantly winning your trackable treasure, each treasure includes a numbered ticket that could be an instant winner of any of our top prizes.
The prizes for the Treasure Hunt may include (but not limited to):
- GPS Units
- Tablets
- Smart Watches
- Other fun things we may think of!
In order to participate in the Treasure Hunt, you must have a ticket! Tickets can be purchased at the event store during the event week. We do sell a limited number of tickets each year, and they are sold on a first come, first served basis. So we encourage you to purchase your tickets early if you plan on participating.
Special thanks to our Treasure Hunt Coordinators, Her_Weirdo_His_Crazy, for all the work that goes into setting up this activity, as well as all of the many Treasure Hunt volunteers that help make this activity happen every year.
