You’ll get your info packet and then the fun starts immediately! Later\, teams travel a short distance to Devil’s Alley before finishing at City Tap Logan Square. \nAs teams solve puzzles/challenges and play games\, they begin to collect points (that can later be traded with other teams). Keep checking the leader board and see if your team can land in second place. At the end of the event (around 9:30ish) the team that ends up in second place wins!! \nSo\, grab a partner or two or more & sign up; then on the night of the hunt be sure to dress for the weather (you will be outside between bars!) & get ready to go for silver! The event is open to everyone\, but it is suggested that all team members be over 21 (all the indoor stops are bars). \nRequired items (per team): \nPen or pencil \nBlack (or dark) Sharpie \nHighlighter \nSomething to write on \nFlashlight \nDevice capable of receiving text messages \nDevice capable of searching the Web \nInstalled free QR Code app on smartphone \nFunds for food\, drink & stuff \nSee past 2nd Place Races here: https://www.clubedventures.com/rallye/2PRace/2pr.htm \nThis year the hunt will benefit Paper Doll Ensemble – a feminist theatre collective whose original plays combine comedy\, dance\, theatre\, and visual art to create captivating worlds with character-driven narratives.

Since their inception in 2017\, PDE has been featured at Plays & Players Theatre\, the Philly Fringe Festival\, Alabama International Fringe\, and “East to Edinburgh” with 59E59 Theaters in New York.
