Downtown Farmington: Grand Raven Festival created to celebrate Farmington’s 200th anniversary, this large-scale hunt brought hundreds of participants downtown to search for 200 hidden ravens.

    Next Clue created a completely custom, nurse-themed scavenger hunt for our cruise—without ever stepping foot on the ship—and it was iconic. Every detail was thoughtful and color-coded, with clear instructions and unique challenges at each location. I always aim to create memorable experiences, and this truly set our event apart. There’s no way I could’ve pulled this off myself—this was so well done. The value was incredible and our group of 30 had the best time, a total 100/10. I cannot recommend this enough—we’ll definitely do it again!

      I am absolutely blown away by the custom design that Next Clue Scavenger Hunt designed for our annual Sister Circle Summit! The clues were eye catching and fun to disperse throughout our venue. The instructions were easy to follow and truly was the perfect activity for our Pre-Summit Social! We had so many people sharing how fun it was and that it got them around the room, doing activities and connecting with our vendors. We would 100% recommend them for your event and will absolutely be using them again for ours!

        This was our first time ever having a scavenger hunt for one of our events. It brought such a fun experience to our family/community event and was really well thought through and tailored for our families/kids and event. Next Clue really took the time to understand our needs and how the scavenger hunt would fit together with our event. The materials and scavenger hunt were beautiful and worked perfectly and the setup and play instructions made it super easy.

          What stood out to me was how personalized the hunt was from branding, to tying the purpose of the mastermind into the scavenger hunt, and incredible communication leading up to it to make sure I had everything I needed! Even the flexibility and difficulty of some of the clues was nice for me to be able to make it harder or easier. I cannot wait to do more of these or the events I support!

            Trust me this is not your standard “search for an item” type of scavenger hunt. You are solving riddles, and different types of puzzles, looking for a hidden object, participating in physical challenges and sometimes even eating or drinking your clue. It has everything and once you’ve done one Next Clue hunt you will be hooked and looking for the next event you can have one at.

              The level of detail, research, organization and creativity is incredible. Next Clue placed clues and tokens within many businesses downtown and strategized with merchants to maximize interaction. Even service-based businesses reported that scavenger hunters came through their doors and “found” their business. Comments overheard included, “I never knew there was a ____ store in my downtown,” and “I’ve always wondered about this store, but had never been in.” The scavenger hunt was a reason to cross the threshold for many small businesses.
