Big Brothers Big Sisters Launches Scavenger Hunt with Eventzee

Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Bluegrass (BBBS Bluegrass) launched a fundraiser project using the Eventzee scavenger hunt app. Utilizing Eventzee technology, “Scavenger Hunt for Kids’ Sake” was the nonprofit’s first hybrid fundraising event, which allowed attendees at an in-person event to compete against those participating virtually. 

 The hunt continues the tradition of the “Bowl for Kids’ Sake” and “Golf Fore Kids’ Sake” fundraising events. Fundraising began in the weeks leading up to the hunt, which took place from June 4 to June 6. The in-person event was held at Red Mile Race Track, following all the recommended protocols to keep attendees safe. Teams were composed of 4-6 members, regardless of whether they were competing in-person or virtually, and they were given a 1-2 hour timeframe to complete most of the challenges. The event raised nearly $50,000 that will go directly toward supporting youth in Central Kentucky.

 “Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Bluegrass is a prime example of how to utilize Eventzee as a fundraising tool,” said Craig Holland, CEO of Freeze Tag. “They were able to provide a fun, fresh event for their clients, and raise awareness about their great program. We’d love to have the opportunity to work with them on more events in the future.”

 Challenges were organized into 5 groups. The first group was open to all teams before the hunt officially started, allowing them to prepare by providing info challenges about the event’s sponsors, encouraging them to follow the sponsors on social media via photo challenges, and allowing them to express themselves via text and video challenges. The remaining groups were allocated as follows: “In-Person Challenges”, which included QR Code challenges for eggs hidden around the track; “Virtual Challenges”; “Anywhere Challenges”, which were largely photo and video challenges that were skill- or creativity-based; and “Anywhere Trivia”, which consisted entirely of quiz challenges with either a “Big”, “Little”, or “Movie” theme. 

 “Eventzee provided an excellent experience for our annual event and helped us reach a larger audience than just in-person attendees,” said Afton Fairchild, Community Engagement Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Bluegrass. “Eventzee’s staff was very responsive and thanks to them, Scavenger Hunt for Kids’ Sake went off without a hitch!”

 The partnership with BBBS Bluegrass is part of the Eventzee marketing program that gives companies the opportunity to engage with their clients in new and exciting ways through gaming. Companies can increase brand loyalty and offer virtual marketing promotions, incentives and competitions for a day, a week or even many months. Eventzee is also a unique fundraising tool, which allows clients to sell access to their mobile scavenger hunts with ease.

Freeze Tag Launches Team Events With Eventzee

Freeze Tag Launches Team Events With Eventzee

We’re excited to announce we have officially launched a state of the art team event option for the Eventzee application! While in the past, event participants could potentially work as a team under a single Eventzee account, this worked better for in-person events. The extended functionality comes as a highly requested feature from clients, particularly those hosting team-building or ice breaker-style events.

“With virtual events, coordinating with team members in different locations and maybe even different time zones is already difficult,” said Craig Holland, CEO of Freeze Tag. “With the Eventzee Teams version, team members can be in different locations and still contribute to their overall team’s score.” 

The main difference between Eventzee team events and regular events is that team events have extra Team Scoring options for event hosts to specify their requirements. Unlike some other scavenger hunt apps, each team member’s score can affect the overall team score in Eventzee team events, if the host chooses. Event hosts have the flexibility to require all team members to complete a challenge, just one team member, or any number in between. In addition, depending on the member requirement they chose, event hosts can specify whether they want only the top N or bottom N scores to count, or to have all the scores added together.

Utilizing Eventzee’s Team functions and white label program, Barnes Harley Davidson launched the exclusive Squad Wars: Coast To Coast app. This exciting, multiplayer, motorcycle riding experience has riders driving to landmarks and businesses throughout North America.

Event hosts also have the option to create teams and assign participants to them, or to leave it up to their participants to form their own teams. For the latter option, a minimum and maximum number of members can be specified so that teams must be within that range before they can start to work on the challenges. Regardless of which team-forming option event hosts choose, they always have the ability to create their own teams and move participants to different teams, if conflicts arise.

In events where participants are allowed to create their own teams, the team captains are given a Team Manager role which allows them full control over their members — they can invite, cancel invites, accept or reject join requests, promote to the Team Manager role, and remove. In addition, the Team area in the Social tab only displays messages from other team members, unlike regular events where the Chat is open to all participants. This private team chat allows team members to use the Eventzee app to plan, strategize, and coordinate their efforts.

Lust For Gold Film Launches Treasure Hunt With Eventzee

SenArt Films will launch a movie premiere event using the Eventzee scavenger hunt app. Utilizing Eventzee technology, the “Lust For Gold Treasure Hunt” has moviegoers stopping by landmarks and businesses throughout Tucson Arizona’s Mercado District.

The hunt is free to join, but pre-registration is required. Interested parties simply need to follow the “Three Steps to Participate!” on Lust for Gold: A Race Against Time’s website. The virtual event features GPS, QR code, photo, video, text, and quiz challenges. Participants will get a great overview of the Mercado District, which should come in handy when it’s time to head to the Festival Grounds in the Mercado Annex, where the film will be screened. The hunt will take place on Sunday, April 18, between the hours of 10:00 am and 4:00 pm.

“It’s an honor to be working with SenArt Films on the showing of their documentary,” said Craig Holland, CEO of Freeze Tag. “Hosting a treasure hunt prior to the film opening is a wonderful way to get the audience into the spirit of adventure captured in the Lust for Gold film.”

$1,000 in cash and prizes will be awarded to the top 3 participants or teams. The winners can expect to receive some combination of hiking gear, merchandise, gift certificates, and more. The film premiere will take place a few hours later, as part of the Arizona International Film Festival. Interested parties will need to purchase the $10 tickets via Eventbrite.

“We wanted to offer viewers of the film a hands-on experience by sending them out on a treasure hunt of their own,” said Hannah Gabriel of SenArt Films. “Eventzee’s wide selection of challenges are a perfect fit and setting up this one-of-a-kind adventure was easy using their tools.”

About Lust for Gold: A Race Against Time
Like the 1949 Columbia Pictures release of Lust for Gold, this present-day true story is about obsession, greed, and the hunt for gold. Boyhood dreams of treasure lead to a lifelong search when a retired missile scientist makes a monumental discovery and tempts fate for fortune as he hatches a secret plan to prove his claim. With his estranged son at his side, he secures an entertainment/personal injury lawyer who assembles a team –a retired blackjack dealer, a veterinary assistant, and a dog. The plan? To covertly remove gold bullion from within the most restricted area of Federal land deep within Superstition Mountain, Arizona. But the one risk greater than facing the unforgiving terrain and Federal prosecution is time.

The Feature Presentation is preceded by a Featurette, The Tomb, which follows the same team in their efforts to unearth a Jesuit Tomb said to contain millions of dollars of gold bars, jewels, coins and paintings.

Lust for Gold: A Race Against Time will have its premiere Sunday, April 18 as part of the Arizona Film Festival. Learn more at https://senartfilms.com/lust-for-gold/.
