š“āā ļøš¦ CAPTAIN KIDD'S SCAVENGER HUNT š¦š“āā ļø
Will You and Your CREW Find the Notorious Captain Kidd's Treasure?
Read on for all the details!
Ahoy Mateys!
While evaluating progress at our new Chelsea Boat Ramp and Docks, Town Supervisor Cavaccini and his team stumbled upon a treasure marker hidden in the sea wall, uncovered a hidden treasure chest filled with all sorts of goods and old papers. After sorting through the items, he was able to make out what sounded like a rhyme and looked like a map of Wappinger..
Legend has it that the notorious Captain Kidd buried a glittering hoard of treasure somewhere right here in town. And now, after centuries of silence, the map has resurfaced....
But beware, mateys! This treasure won't just be handed over. You and your clever crew must follow riddles and navigate your way through these clues across townāusing wit, teamwork, and just a pinch of caffeine-fueled creativity.
There will be laughs, there may be groans, and thereās a high chance of spontaneous āArrrās. But one thingās certain: adventure awaits, and the race for Captain Kiddās treasure is about to begin!
So gather your tiny deckhands, check that your strollers have all-terrain wheels, and letās make some unforgettable memories. The treasureās out thereāand itās calling your name!
