Lincoln Scavenger Hunt

Tomorrow, Sunday May 24th, is National Scavenger Hunt day. Right now, we can only attend so many events. But we can still drive around town. Why not get out and try to find these dozen places that are found are Lincoln, Nebraska? I will even give you a hint – all of the locations this time are located west of 40th Street.

To make the hunt easier, you can print out this hunt!

Dozen Lincoln Places Scavenger Hunt

While there are plenty of national websites charge for supposedly fun local scavenger hunts, I prefer to stick to the hunts organized by locals. Why would I want to pay money to people who maybe have never even been to my town? Several free family hunts can be found online.

If you do take the time to find the Lincoln locations pictured, I would love to have your feedback. Were they easy to find? Hard to locate? In case you cannot find a few of the locations, I will be giving hints tomorrow on my Facebook page. Look for a 3:00 post. If you happen to be doing this hunt after May 24th, I will label it as #dozenLincolnlocations and #scavengerhunt, so you should be able to still find the key.
