[ARCHIVED] Community Book Scavenger Hunt

Each week in October, we will be hiding a popular adult book around Washington County and sharing clues here and on social media. If you find the book, you get to keep it! The prize books are: 

How it works: 

  1. On Mondays: A book will be hidden somewhere in Washington County. All books will be hidden outdoors. You will not need to enter any buildings or businesses to find them. 
  2. On Tuesdays: We will share the first clue on social media and this page. 
  3. On Thursdays: We will share a second clue if the book hasn't been found. 
  4. If you find a book, let us know by tagging us on social media!

Follow us on social media

We'll add scavenger hunt information on this page, but be sure to follow us on social media to get clues and updates more quickly: Facebook | InstagramTwitter
