About the Scavenger Hunts
The Barclay Mountain Co. invites local businesses and organizations to join us in creating a free, community-wide scavenger hunt that celebrates local history and hidden gems. Families can explore the community with custom-designed playing cards, handed out for free by partnering businesses, each card featuring a QR code that leads to challenges—like taking a selfie at a local business or finding answers on a company’s website. Completing these challenges unlocks cryptic clues and puzzles that guide participants to hidden coins. Partner with us to promote local businesses, engage the community, and create a fun, memorable adventure for everyone!
How it Works
1. Partnerships
We collaborate with local businesses, organizations, and museums to create content for the scavenger hunt and secure sponsorships to produce the playing cards. Partnering businesses are featured prominently in the cards and online challenges.
2. Promotion
The event is promoted heavily through local media, social media channels, and partnering businesses' platforms. Participants learn where they can pick up their free deck of playing cards at designated partner locations, ensuring excitement builds in the weeks leading up to the hunt.
3. Scavenger Hunt
Once the cards are distributed, the scavenger hunt begins!
-
Participants complete online challenges linked through QR codes on the cards, such as visiting specific locations, attending events, or engaging with businesses online.

After completing the challenges, participants receive clues to find hidden coins throughout the community.

The hunt culminates in a chance to win prizes for those who find the coins and solve the final puzzles.

About Us
We are Robert and Albina.
I first met Albina in 2019 during a business trip to Moscow, Russia. We fell instantly in love, and our romance has taken us on several adventures around the world. We've climbed mountains in China and Turkey, enjoyed a pizza tour of Italy, and visited places like Warsaw, Poland, Saint Petersburg, Russia, and many locations throughout the United States.
In 2024, we wanted to bring the same sense of adventure we experienced around the world to local communities. Inspired by our travels, we set out to create immersive scavenger hunts that allow people to explore their own surroundings in exciting new ways. Our goal was to help friends and families embark on adventures together, strengthening their bonds while discovering hidden gems in their communities.
