Event FAQs

Participants will register as a team of 1-4 members for this photo-based scavenger hunt. The week of the event, teams can download Goosechase, a phone app that will provide a list of all challenges along with point totals. Teams will have three hours to complete as many challenges as possible. A selfie photo uploaded to the app will serve as completion of each challenge. Some activation challenges will require a team selfie to receive points. The team with the largest point total will be crown our champion. Prizes will be awarded for first, second and third places.

You can have up to four members per team. You can also go solo if you wish.

Team registration fees will be the same for each team and will cover entry for 4 people. However, you may compete with less participants if you choose. We’re also happy to pair you up with other non-complete teams if the opportunity is available. Just shoot us an email.

The Hunt will kick off at Westport Bar & Rec at 4120 Pennsylvania Ave, Kansas City, MO 64111. Teams are encouraged to complete their challenges in and around Midtown. The Hunt will culminate back at Westport Bar & Rec for a super fun post-party.

A tentative schedule for the day includes team check-in at 12 p.m. with The Hunt following from 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. The Post Party will include prizes, food, beverages and music from 3:30-4:30 p.m.

All participants are encouraged to complete challenges via walking, Bird, streetcar, etc. but the method of getting around will be up to each team.

The Hunt will be rain or shine (or snow – let’s be honest, it’s Kansas City) so participants are encouraged to dress accordingly.

Individual tickets will also be sold for the Post Party where you can come and celebrate our participants and enjoy great music, games, prizes, food and beverage.

All net proceeds from The Hunt will go to supporting Uncover KC Real World Learning initiatives. These funds will support scholarships and micro-grants for teachers, students, or schools interested in these programs.
