Dear Bourbonnais,

This spring, we wanted to celebrate community connection and some of the places that make Bourbonnais so great. And we have a secret message just for you! We’ve hidden words at a selection of community spots. Visit them all to find each word, unscramble the message, and earn a chance to win a sweet prize basket. 

How it Works:

• Sign up: Visit the library to pick up your scavenger hunt card. You'll get a small prize just for signing up!
• Hunt: Go to each business and organization listed on your card. There, you'll find a QR code to scan. You'll be directed to a web page where you'll learn more about the library and the location you're visiting! You'll also find a clue word that you'll want to remember!
• Decode: After you visit each scavenger hunt location, you'll have 8 clue words to unscramble. Once you've decoded the sentence, write it on the back of your card and return it to the library for a raffle ticket!
• Rewards: Everyone who finishes the scavenger hunt will receive a raffle ticket for our grand prize baskets! Want an extra entry? Post a photo of you or your family participating in the scavenger hunt and tag us on social media!

So grab a friend, set out solo, or make it a family outing! We're excited to celebrate our community and all the incredible resources available in Bourbonnais. And, of course, don’t forget to have fun!
