“Howdy, Y’all!”
The 3rd annual MHQ Bash successfully two-stepped all over the Dallas Metroplex this weekend! We had Munzee and Eventzee players from all over the world join us for a weekend of scavenger hunts and Texas stereotypes. Needless to say it was a blast and we can’t wait to have everyone back again next year!
Here’s a run down of the four Eventzee hunts we ran for the weekend:
TX Weekend Hunt”
This Texas themed Scavenger Hunt was an exclusive event around the Dallas area to encourage Lone Star Bash attendees to check out some truly Texan topics in between all of the events!
Clue Examples:
BBQ – Take a photo of a barbecue restaurant. Hutchin’s in McKinney is pretty good, but certain MHQ staff members might have more divisive suggestions!
Prickly Pear – Take a photo of a cactus or something cactus themed!
Boot Scootin’ Boogie – Creatively represent doing a line dance with friends.
TX State Fair Hunt:
Attendees joined MHQ at the TX State Fair to kick off Lone Star Bash in style! This photo scavenger hunt featured ten clues scattered about the fair grounds. Don’t worry, everybody got their fair share of fried foods and carnival games!
Clue Examples:
Friendly Ferris – Ride to the top of the Ferris Wheel and take a photo.
Tall Texan – Position your camera and take a photo next to the Big tex statue.
Fried Food Frenzy – The TX State Fair is notable for it’s less-than-dietary delicacies. Take a photo of 3 or more Fair fried foods together.
TX Activity Hunt:
From Unicorn Racing to two-stepping, this hunt had players completing TX-themed activities with a Munzee twist! There were 10 activity stations where players had to take a photo and complete and activity before they could advance to the next stop.
Clue Examples:
Unicorn Races – Find the activity station on the map. It’s near the parking lot. When you get there saddle up a Unicorn and hit the tracks. This one’s gonna be a photo finish!
Six Flags of Texas – Find the activity station on the map. It’s in the middle of the baseball fields. When you do the activity! 6 countries have had sovereignty over Texas in history. Choose the correct six flags and place them in the wooden Texas shape. Take a photo when you have the correct six!
Kickoff- Photo – ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?! Find the activity station on the map. It’s next to a light pole. When you get there line up the ball and kick a field goal. Be sure to take a photo!
TX Tupps Brewery Hunt:
After a busy couple days everyone took a break Saturday evening at Tupps Brewery in McKinney, TX. There were five clues scattered about the event including posing with MHQ staff members for a couple photos- and maybe a couple drinks as well.
Clue Examples:
Drinking Buddies – Take a photo with a member of MHQ staff.
Logo Logistics – Take a photo next to the Tupps Brewery logo.
Metalworking – Take a photo of a unique piece of metal art at Tupps Brewery.

Sep 21, 2016 | Announcements, Eventzee Exposure, TESTIMONIALS
In “Eventzee Exposure” we look at testimonials from happy clients who have hosted their own Scavenger Hunts. Our users’ experience is very important to us, so when things go off without a hitch we want to cheer about it. If you’d be interested in sharing your Eventzee experience please reach out to eventzee@munzee.com.
Host: Boy Scouts of America
Event: National Venturing Event – VenturingFest
Event Breakdown and Testimonial:
The Boy Scouts of America’s Venturing program used Eventzee at the Summit Bechtel Reserve in West Virginia for our first ever National Venturing Event-Venturing Fest.
We wanted a way for our participants to be able to explore the Summit and interact with other participants and Summit staff members. A scavenger hunt was a great way for our participants to get out and explore the site as they looked for clues. We thought an electronic scavenger hunt would better meet the needs of our population, since most of our participants have smartphones and they are easy to carry around and would not get lost like a piece of paper. Our event was 6 days and our scavenger hunt lasted 5 days so we could announce the winner on the last night during our closing show.
Our participants LOVED the Eventzee Scavenger Hunt. We even had adult leaders join the fun and participate, too. This was our most popular event, with over 300 participants actively playing along. Throughout the week, countless youth and adults commented to our Venturing Fest staff about how much they loved the scavenger hunt and how much fun they were having. They equally liked the ability to explore the Summit and get to meet new people along the way, since some of our clues required participants to meet other participants and Summit staff members.
The app benefited our event in so many ways. First, it encouraged our participants to get out and explore the Summit. Many of them had never been there before, so this was a great way for them to see the different program areas. Secondly, this event encouraged interaction between our participants because they were working on clues together. This also gave our participants something to do in the evening when our program areas were closed, but, most of our participants were working on their scavenger hunt during all waking hours of the event. The scavenger hunt added another level of fun and interaction to our event, which was loved by all of our participants!
– Jessica (Ayala) Janscha | Venturing & STEM Nova Specialist @ BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA | Pilots & Program Development Department
Clue Examples:
- Zipline – Take a photo of somebody else on the Big Zip
- Woodbage – Take a photo with somebody wearing a Woodbadge critter patrol patch
- State – Take a photo with a Crew from another State
- Rain gear – Take a photo of your Crew with their rain gear on!
