The Monument City Scavenger Hunt (MCSH) is a one day event consisting of live music, art, and of course a bicycle scavenger hunt that will take participants across Baltimore City; while at the same time showcasing both the most significant and often overlooked landmarks and treasures that shape it.
The scavenger hunt will consist of teams of three and is designed to make winning a real possibility for all participants. In order to win the scavenger hunt you will need more than speed and a good sense of direction. In fact, relying on those two skills alone will almost guarantee that you don’t win. What will aid in your quest for victory is a sense of teamwork and creativity.
Prizes will be awarded to the teams who have the most success with the hunt as well as prizes for things such as coolest team name/shirts, hunt with style, DFL and much more.
MCSH was conceived with the goal of bringing the Baltimore/Cycling community together while leaving egos and negative competitive attitudes at home.
