Asheville's Hunt for Red October - Scavenger Hunt and Oktoberfest Party

Saturday, October 24, 2009 from 10:00 am - 3:30 pm in Asheville, NC.

For Western North Carolina residents looking to join in a fun and challenging community event this fall while helping a local non-profit fulfill its mission can stop searching – at least until Saturday, October 24.

The American Red Cross -- along with Arby’s, Best Buy and Clear Channel Asheville -- is sponsoring a brand new community contest, a scavenger hunt appropriately named “The Hunt for Red October”. All proceeds from the event go to the Asheville-Mountain Area Chapter of the American Red Cross.

What's in it for you? A chance to win four, yes FOUR, 42” flat screen televisions, join the “Hunt for Red October” scavenger hunt on October 24. Teams of four will compete in the city-wide event benefiting Asheville’s local Red Cross chapter. Entry fee is $25 per person for a 4-person team, and each member of winning team gets a flat screen courtesy of Best Buy.

The fun begins at 10 AM with the city-wide hunt. Following the scavenger hunt there will be an Oktoberfest Party taking place at the Red Cross Chapter on 100 Edgewood Rd in Asheville, where results will be collected, tallied, the winners announced and the prizes distributed!
