If you’re looking for something fun and out of the ordinary to do on Sunday Fun-days with friends and family, why not try out our fall scavenger hunt?

The rules are simple: the first one to check off all of the items on the list wins! We’ve made it slightly advanced in that you must find certain things in certain locations. If you’re looking for a quicker scavenger hunt, just omit the locations and simply look for the items. Happy fall hunting!

Look For:

__ an orange leaf at Norway Ridge

__ a yellow leaf at Chippewa Hills Pathway

__ a red leaf off of the Alpena Bi-Path

__ a squirrel at Evergreen or Holy Cross Cemetery

__ a spider web on your walk

__ a pumpkin at AJ’s Berry Farm

Taste:

__ homemade apple cider from Knaebe’s, hard cider for ages 21+

__ pumpkin pie from any restaurant or bakery in town

__ hot chocolate from Cabin Creek

__ fresh apples from the Alpena Farmer’s Market

__ Oktoberfest seasonal beer from Austin Brothers; under 21 substitute for an appetizer instead

__ cinnamon roll from Connie’s Café

Move Through Nature, at any location:

__ climb a tree

__ cross a stream or a babbling brook

__ jump over a log

__ run and jump into a pile of leaves

__ cross a bridge (we recommend the covered bridge at Island Park)
