Start your holiday fun while you experience this outdoor event at the Jones Pond Pavilion at Shelby Farms Park. The pavilion is across from the First Horizon Visitor's Center. This scavenger hunt event takes you along the scenic areas of Shelby Farms Park. Who knows, you might even see a Bison or two. You'll follow the clues to find Santa's Reindeer and the gifts from the Twelve Days of Christmas. You will need your phone to find the hidden items along the trail. You'll receive the clues upon registration. The individual or team that finds the most reindeer wins a prize. There are additional prizes to be won for finding the twelve gifts of Christmas. An elf told me that Old Saint Nick might just join in the fun. Come have a photo with him and do a little shopping at the Holiday Bazaar. This event supports the programs of Inspire Hope, a professional mentoring program for youth in grades 7-12. Inspire Hope is a federally recognized tax-exempt nonprofit.

We are also elated to share a portion of the proceeds with the CAPA Choir of Overton High School. They will be competing at the Orlando Fest in the Spring. They might even sign a song or two for you.

There are limited vendor spaces. You are invited to set up a space at the Holiday Bazaar. Contact Rubbie King at (901)493-3191 or (901)209-0047 or by email at rubbie@inspire901youth.org for additional details. You may also purchase tickets until 8:00 a.m. the morning of the event.

We would love to see pictures of your search adventure. Hurry, you don't want to miss out on all of the fun.
