Montgomery County Recreation Hosting Online Scavenger Hunt

Montgomery County Recreation announced a 10-week long scavenger hunt, which started Friday, June 12 and will continue until Monday, August 17.

At the start of each week, Montgomery County Recreation will post a new challenge on their Facebook page. This week’s challenge includes activities such as, cooking a healthy meal, using your body to spell your name, writing a letter to a family member, playing a board game, and creating a “Thank You” sign or chalk drawing for front line workers.

The first challenge of our 10-Week Family #ScavengerHunt is live. Each week a new challenge will be posted on Facebook as an event. When the event is through, you will receive a certificate with your ultimate Recreation level. Join in! #MoCoRec pic.twitter.com/HpgYVFOZSP
