Transportation Scavenger Hunt

The American Planning Association NY Metro Chapter's Transportation Committee and YPT-NYC: Young Professionals in Transportation - Greater NYC Chapter are excited to bring back the Transportation Scavenger Hunt on Saturday, April 26th!


When: Saturday, April 26th; 10:00AM to 3:00 PM
Where: Meet at Bowling Green (by the benches and the fountain) to start -- but the hunt will take you all across the City!
RSVP: Please sign up here:  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ypt-nyc-apa-nym-transportation-scavenger-hunt-tickets-1258901049929 

How it works:

  • Teams of up to 5 people will compete for a chance to be crowned transportation scavengers-in-chief! We'll meet at Bowling Green at 10:00 am for an 11 am start.

  • Submit photos of your team with items/places you find on the clue board, which you'll find throughout the New York City transportation system. Point values vary depending on item/place (more information will be provided when you check in at Bowling Green).

  • The hunt will conclude at 3:00 pm. At 4:00 pm, we'll reconvene at a central meeting location for drinks, snacks, and also to award prizes!

To participate, you'll need:

$12.00 to register (proceeds go towards prizes and afterparty food)

  • A fare payment method - note that transit fares are at your own expense. There will also be plenty of ways to rack up points in public spaces!

  • At least one person with a data-enabled smartphone with WhatsApp per team.

  • A pair of comfortable running shoes (recommended).

 

If you don't have a pre-formed team, feel free to join the day-of and make new friends! We will be helping facilitate this when we meet at 10:00 am.

 

**More instructions will be sent closer to the event date to all registrants**
