OTTAWA – The Reddick Mansion Association is bringing back its “Architectural and Historical Scavenger
Hunt of Ottawa” this Sunday at 3:00 PM at the Mansion.
Hosted by RMA board member Steve Novario, the scavenger hunt will begin at the Mansion 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. Water and snacks will be provided, as well.
According to Novario, “We have new categories this year including “Where is the Playground, Susie” and “Waving Through a Window.” 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 $10.00 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.
The Reddick Mansion is located at 100 W. Lafayette Street, Ottawa, IL and anchors Washington Square, site of the first Lincoln-Douglas Debate. The Mansion is open to the public for tours at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Friday through Monday.
