HPL Scavenger Hunt - July 2019 - A Peak Experience
A Peak Experience is this year's theme for the Hopewell Public Library's annual self-scheduled, self-guided Scavenger Hunt, held during the entire month of July. Look up to search for specific peaks hidden in plain sight within the Borough of Hopewell. And enjoy visiting the borough’s local businesses, stopping for a cold drink and snack, and relaxing in the town parks. Hunt around town to find the "peaks" shown in 36 numbered photographs of architectural features and other surprises found on the gables, peaks, and rooftops above Hopewell Boro (not only downtown). You can spot each one from the sidewalk -- please do not trespass on private property. Take as long as you need to find as many of the items as you can. When you find a match, write down the address for that number on the answer sheet. Turn in your answer sheet at the library by 8:00 pm on Wed., July 31.
Download the instructions, answer sheet, and photos of the "peaks" below, or visit the library for copies of the answer sheet. The downloads are available in two packages: a smaller PDF file with smaller thumbnail photos (only 4 pages), and a larger PDF file with full-page photos (for more detail).
