Sign up for the Pirate Treasure Hunt in Fort Zumwalt Park

Here's a clue to a great time- the Pirate Treasure Hunt in Fort Zumwalt Park for ages 5 and up. The deadline to sign up is Friday, August 24.

Add a little fun and adventure to your life by signing up for the Pirate Treasure Hunt, a scavenger hunt for treasure hidden in Fort Zumwalt Park, O’Fallon, Missouri 63366. The event, which is for ages 5 and up, will be held from 2 – 4 p.m. on Saturday, September 15.

 

Starting with the first clue, participants will navigate through the park to the next location or station, where they will complete a nautical activity such as tying a seafaring knot, hooking “treasure,” or “feeding the shark.” As participants finish each task, they’ll receive both a clue to the next station and a puzzle piece. When all the puzzle pieces are collected, participants will put them together to form a riddle which must be solved to discover where to dig for hidden treasure.
