Family Photo Scavenger Hunt

This kid-friendly challenge uses photo clues to help you find different places throughout Dix Park. When your family (or friend group!) finds each of the ten pictured locations, take a "family photo." 

At the end, share your favorite photo on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter using #DixPark and the caption “We completed the Dix Park Family Photo Scavenger Hunt Challenge!” for the chance to get featured @DixPark. 

Printed copies of the scavenger hunt are available in the colorful kiosk cubes around the park or you can download the file below.
