Lake Erie Scavenger Hunt
9:00 AM
to 5:00 PM
Designated Local Erie PA Businesses
The rules are simple, just grab your best gal pal or venture out on your own to the designated local businesses (list can be found in the back of the program booklet).
After browsing the establishment, go to the cashier and show them your Lake Erie Gala Participant badge and ask for the special Lake Erie Gala Charm.
Bring all your collected charms and your booklet to the Lake Erie Gala registration table before 5 pm on Saturday to register your name and score for special prizes.
Prizes will be awarded at the gala dinner for the winner based on the number of charms collected.
If there are multiple participants for any of the above, then their names will be placed in a randomizer and the prizes will be given out accordingly.
