The Toast of Tarrytown Scavenger Hunt
A one-of-a-kind activity for Westchester groups
If you’re looking for fun and laughs for a group in or near Tarrytown, we have one—with very unusual challenges that will exercise your brain and tickle your funny bone. On teams, you’ll tackle challenges that might involve strange uses for food, new lyrics for old songs, people in any kind of uniform, strangers wearing valuable words, secrets about local landmarks, and more. If you’ve been on scavenger hunts where you’ve had to collect boring things like clothespins and obscure CDs, you’re in for a surprise.
And Tarrytown is a great setting for a scavenger hunt! Broadway is the main drag for this game, featuring a mix of small stores, unusual architecture, a beautiful park, and hidden history. Our easy-to-use browser-based app will be your passport to fun.
Along the way, your team will…
Take unusual team photos: Get creative and keep your eyes open as you explore your area and try to meet the requirements of diverse Team Photo Challenges. You might be asked to demonstrate a group member’s superhuman powers. Or treat a staircase as if it’s a carnival ride. Or photobomb another team.
Find or create unusual items: Can you create and name an amazing new food by combining two unlikely foods? How about an appropriate trophy for the hunt winners? Three items that rhyme? Something improved by being broken? You’ll be surprised by the results that come from great teamwork.
Crack a code to decipher a mystery message: Your hunt materials will include a bizarrely coded message. What the heck does it say? To crack the code, you’ll need to solve crafty, fun puzzles, involving a trivia questions, pop music, and a “pigpen cipher.” Can you piece together the key that unlocks the mystery message?
Locate your Host for a surprise bonus challenge: Find your hunt host, who will be waiting for you, ready to spring a tricky, humorous visual puzzle for you to ponder. It could involve unusual celebrity pairings…or musical snippets…or international maps…or strangely altered art.
Various versions to suit your group
Go Deluxe: Let us tailor the hunt to your needs. Tell us what you want to highlight and we’ll weave it into the game. Perhaps someone you want to celebrate? A theme or slogan for a new campaign? Hidden talents in your group? Talk to us! We like a challenge.
