Event Description

Frederick County Parks and Recreation is once again partnering with Runners' Retreat to bring a fun twist to one of their Thursday evening group runs! Embark on an exhilarating adventure through the charming streets of downtown Winchester, VA, as you participate in a unique scavenger hunt fun run. Lace up your running shoes and explore the city's rich history while searching for hidden gems and quirky historical items throughout the downtown area. Enjoy a lively, history-infused run that combines fitness with the thrill of discovery in this picturesque Virginia town!

Participants of all ages are welcome (kids under 16 must be with parent/guardian). Teams will have one hour to run around, find and take photos of items then return to Runners’ Retreat. After, we will have a social get together at Vibrissa Beer & Kitchen (drinks and food on your own) and announce the winning team who will receive a prize!

Details:
    · Teams will consist of up to 2-4 runners/walkers.
    · Each team will receive a list of items with assigned points.
    · Teams must stay together for the entire run. Once you find an item, take a photo and be sure to include your team members in the photo.
       Some items have BONUS points, so be sure to try to score extra! 
    · Make sure at least one person on the team will be running with a running watch and a phone (with space for photos!).
    · Start your watch as soon as you leave the store and don't hit stop until you return! Be sure to let the event leaders know your team's final distance.
