Architectural and Historical Scavenger Hunt comes to Ottawa

OTTAWA – An Architectural and Historical Scavenger Hunt will be coming to Ottawa. The Reddick Mansion Association will be hosting the event on Sunday, August 21st, starting at 3:00 p.m. at the Mansion. Hosted once again by RMA board member, Steve Novario, the scavenger hunt will begin at theMansion where participants will receive a packet of photos and clues of architectural and historical highlights throughout Ottawa. People will have approximately one and a half hours to walk or drive around to identify as many photos as possible. A map, water, and snacks will be provided.
According to Novario, “Two of the categories this year include ‘You Can Leave Your Hat On’ and ‘Stairway to Heaven.’ Some of the photos will be easily recognized, but others will require participants to look at local landmarks from new and different perspectives.”
At 4:45 p.m., the teams will check back in at the Mansion where the winners will be determined and prizes awarded. It is recommended that participants park along Columbus Street next to the Mansion.
The cost is $10 per person. Individuals or teams are welcome to participate. Please contact the Reddick Mansion at 815-433-6100 or visit our website, www.reddickmansion.org, for more information and to reserve your space.
