Host: Troy Titans Football Club
Location: Troy, IL
Event Breakdown:
The Troy Titans football club used Eventzee for their annual fundraising scavenger hunt, turning away from traditional pencil and paper hunts. They directed teams of participants to different areas of town to participate in crazy tasks. Each team was given an inflatable “buddy” they had to include in their photos.
Testimonial:
We used Eventzee for our annual Scavenger Hunt. As the coordinator, it saved me so much time in kicking off our event. As far as all of our volunteers, it saved us a ton of time at the end of our event. In the past we have had a roomful of people checking in with their scavenger hunt items – taking time and space. Using an app completely streamlined our process and helped me keep my sanity.
Our participants loved it! They didn’t like how they couldn’t rip apart pages of clues so everyone on the team could work simultaneously, but that was the point! Everyone enjoyed sharing pictures and videos. Many of our participants could have used better lighting on their phones but I think that is something they will have to work on.
Our Scavenger Hunt is a fun event for our club. We don’t make a lot of money from the event. We just want something easy and fun. Eventzee helped us with that. The app streamlined our event, saved us time and labor, and allowed more of our participants to have a good time.
– Cindy Mahnesmith – Director of Fundraising, Troy Titans Football Club
Clue Examples:
- 12 Little Monkeys – Photo of a team member hanging upside down on monkey bars.
- America’s Got Talent – Take a picture of a teammate doing a headstand in a bar.
- Drink UP – Take a picture of entire team, including inflatable buddy, drinking from one drink (each person, including buddy, has own straw)
- Good Samaritan – Take a picture of a teammate pumping gas for someone while that person holds your inflatable.
- Just being helpful – Take a photo of at least two team members helping fold clothes in a public laundry mat.
Photo Examples:

Mar 16, 2016 | Hunt Tips
Scavenger hunts have always been a fun way to interact with others and support camaraderie, but we’ve moved past the limitations of pen and paper. Eventzee takes scavenger hunts to a whole new level by supporting worldwide events and new ways to interact with players. While Eventzee makes it easy to host your own scavenger hunt, it’s up to YOU to make it memorable. So if you’re considering putting on your own, here’s a few tips to get you started.
So you’ve set up your hunt, everyone has signed up and the event is about to kick off. Next thing you know hundreds of photos are flying in and you somehow have to keep up and approve them all. What to do? Luckily, Eventzee makes photo approval quick with our easy-to-use admin tools.
Dashboard
The event Dashboard is a great place to check on leaderboards, messages and submitted photos. There are direct links to player accounts, the clue list and more so you can effectively run your hunt. You can see all of the photos that come in, and approve or deny them here as well.
The Event Dashboard Page
Photo Review
Although the Dashboard is a great page to call home base for your event, we highly suggest using the Photo Review page for the actual approval process. Although you can approve from the event Dashboard, Photo Review displays the photos anonymously so there won’t be a bias when approving.
The Photo Review Page
Clue List
Sometimes it’s not so easy to memorize 20 clues word for word so we suggest having a tab open with the clue list. This way if you’re uncertain whether a photo qualifies or not
you can quickly view exactly what the clues is asking for. You can also edit clues from this page in case wording seems confusing for your players.
The Clue List Page
Clue Timeline
Happen to have more than one approver? Break approval up by clues by clicking on a particular clue. This is also where you can change whether a photo is supposed to be approved or denied in case of a mistake or a dispute. Just click on a particular clue to see the timeline of approvals and denials. To change it just click the correct icon and the image will update.
A Clue Timeline Page
Player Timeline
As you’re approving it can be easy to get into a groove and accidentally accept or decline a photo that shouldn’t be. So when a player messages you, you can go check that in that particular player’s timeline. Just click on the player’s name to access this page.
A Player Timeline Page
Hosting your own scavenger hunt can be daunting at times, but Eventzee makes it easy to create and control the event.
Remember, your event is what you make it, but Eventzee is here to make it as easy on you as possible. To get a more in depth look at setting up Eventzee hunts or how to play Eventzee check out the following guides.

Organization: Integrated Automotive Services
Event: Subaru Sales Training Event
Location: Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal, Canada
Event Breakdown:
IAE works with auto manufacturers for product releases and training staffs on how to successfully market their automobiles. They used Eventzee for their Subaru Drive Experience events across nine days in three different cities with QR Code Quizzes and photo scavenger hunts. The focus of IAE’s Drive Experiences is to put retail staff behind the wheel of the vehicle so they can experience the brand story first hand. Competitive product evaluations and in-depth experiential product training convert to real-world credibility on the showroom floor.
The QR Codes for the quizzes were printed in a workbook that attendees answered as the day went on. This offered the event hosts the ability to look at the comprehension statistics of the attendees and better evaluate the teaching methods. Eventzee also created custom survey polls for IAE so they could easily gather attendees opinions on various model types, and more. These polls were sent to all attendees using the Eventzee messaging system. They would then answer and live results were broadcast on a projector screen onsite.
Photo clues were also used to encourage interaction among attendees. By interacting with specific groups and locations users found a deeper engagement and retention of the goals of the event.
Check out the video from their event!
Testimonial:
“We believe that elevating the learning experience using gamification methods is extremely valuable for retention. Eventzee gave us a unique and simple way to incorporate gamification into our programming. During our automotive training programs, we were able to infuse scavenger-type searches, quizzes and additional elements (like photos and sharing) to deepen engagement and retention. You can see the video for our event here: http://integratedauto.com/
With a 97% participation rate, there was no question this approach was the way to go! The overall satisfaction results were excellent and the participants enjoyed their “fun” while learning and winning some prizes.”

Scavenger hunts have always been a fun way to interact with others and support camaraderie, but we’ve moved past the limitations of pen and paper. Eventzee takes scavenger hunts to a whole new level by supporting worldwide events and new ways to interact with players. While Eventzee makes it easy to host your own scavenger hunt, it’s up to YOU to make it memorable. So if you’re considering putting on your own, here’s a few tips to get you started.
The goal of most scavenger hunts is to drive traffic to specific areas and get players to explore and while this holds true with Eventzee, we also encourage our clients to use our tools educationally. QR Code Quiz Clues are a unique feature that still push players to find a hidden code in the real world, but then take it a step further by testing their knowledge.
Creative Customization
Hosting a birthday party for your best friend? Planning a road trip? Surprising your parents for their wedding anniversary? QR Code quizzes are perfect for hosting a customized scavenger hunt to teach your friend’s and family about a specific subject- even if the subject is you! Create clues to test your friend’s knowledge of the Birthday girl, or plan out a road trip with quizzes about the history of geographical locations. The creativity it up to you!
Campus Queries
Tie your school’s campus tours an Eventzee GPS hunt with Quiz clues to teach new students about their new surroundings. Map out financial buildings, sports complexes and more important locations for your campus and see if they’re paying attention to the guides via quizzes.
Business Book Smarts
Work with a group of local businesses to sponsor Downtown scavenger hunts. Place QR Code Quizzes within each location and once players scan it, they’ll be prompted with trivia about the location. Did you know Jim, the manager at Jamaican Me Crazy Smoothie Shop is a retired green beret? How about that Jillian at the Quilt Shop practices welding in her free time? This offers a unique way for small business owners to interact with their customers.
Creating Quiz Clues
Setting up Quiz clues is easy. You’ll add QR Code clues like normal, but remember that your Clue Title and Description will lead the players to the hidden code. From there you’ll need to click the gear icon to enter the individual clue’s settings. Simply click on the “Quiz” section and choose the quiz type option. Eventzee quiz clues are all multiple choice for automatic approval processes, but you can add as many answers as you like.
Remember, your event is what you make it, but Eventzee is here to make it as easy on you as possible. To get a more in depth look at setting up Eventzee hunts or how to play Eventzee check out the following guides.
