How to Play:
- Choose a game based on your skill level and/or proximity to the location.
- Once you have read the clue, strap on your hiking shoes and begin to hunt
- When you find the treasure please read the clue and write down any information that you may need to bring back home with you. It's best if you bring your own pen and paper. Generally the clue or answer will be no longer than one sentence or phrase.
- Please replace the clue back in the bottle and hide the bottle in the exact spot that you found it. Please don't attempt to bury it entirely. The idea is to hide the clue away from the public eye but make it easy enough for game players to find.
- Once you have solved the mystery, enter your answer at http://www.sealthebeach.com/SealTreasures.html
- Please allow 24 - 72 hours for the answer to be verified. Your Display Name and Points will be updated on the Leader Board.
- At this time no prizes are being awarded. However as our program continues to grow we hope to incorporate incentives for your participation.
- The majority of the games will be centralized around Ventura County, but that is not to say I will not venture outside this perimeter.
- Games will be updated and added frequently.
