August 7, 2010
9am to 12pm

The "Stalk Lake City Scavenger Hunt" begins in Liberty Park in Salt Lake and ends in the Farmer's Market in Pioneer Park by the Gateway. Each team captain gets a list of clues leading to clue cards stashed at local businesses en route to Pioneer Park. The first team to collect 10 clue cards from participating local businesses between those two locations and find the finish line wins! In addition to a Team Captain, every team needs a FINISHER. This is the only team member required to run from the start line to the finish line where they must cross with the 10 clue cards--one of which they will collect themselves to learn where the finish line is in Pioneer Park.

The rules are as follows:

* One team per non-profit
* Teams can be any size
* Teams must represent legitimate non-profits
* Non-profit MUST be capable of receiving credit card contributions
* No cars or other forms of transportation allowed besides the feet attached to your body
* Phones, Internet, and other information gathering devices totally ARE allowed
* All participants must be 16 or older. Have everyone younger meet you at the finish line
* Between the two parks, each team has to collect 10 cards from different categories by solving clues
* First team across the finish line wins $1,000 for their non-profit/charity
* Second team across gets $100 for their non-profit from Barnes & Noble
* Obey all laws, don't cross on greens, jaywalk, or otherwise set yourself up for a bad day
* You CAN scheme, be proactive, place people strategically around the city before the race begins or do anything you can do on foot
* Not all team members need to be there. You can have a team member helping you online from Boston if you like.

Sheralyn is the local author of the Rhea Jensen series. In Book 2, "Welcome to Stalk Lake City," private investigator Rhea Jensen moves to Utah from her home in Los Angeles. Both athletic and intelligent, Rhea has a knack for getting to the bottom of whatever case is thrown her way--athleticism, intelligence and familiarity with Salt Lake will thus be great tools in winning the "Stalk Lake Scavenger Hunt."

Sheralyn will drop clues on her blog and on Twitter (@sheralynpratt) starting in July to help those teams that are feeling a little proactive get a head start on questions that will be posed on August 7th. To stay in the know, join the Facebook Event page.
