One of the most exciting events of the weekend will be Sunday’s massive 100-marble token and scavenger hunt valued at over $10,000. The Eureka Lodging Alliance is sponsoring the hunt, which starts at noon at the Clarke Plaza (3rd and E).

There will be 2 separate ways to participate and possibly win one of these amazing prizes. The first will be a “token hunt”. Random tokens will be hidden around the Old Town area with clues published on the Facebook page “Humboldt Hunts Marbles”. If you can solve the clue and find the token, bring it back to the Clarke Museum to exchange it for a treasured marble. The other fun and exciting challenge will be a Photographic Scavenger Hunt (you will need digital camera or smart phone). Starting at noon, you can pick up a sheet with challenges and riddles that will lead you on a great exploration of our beautiful and historic Old Town. When you have finished the list, bring it back to the Clarke Museum to have your photos checked and possibly win one of the marble prizes. ​
