Bike Coalition’s Scavenger Hunt comes to southeastern San Diego

The San Diego County Bike Coalition is bringing the Southeastern SD Scavenger Hunt to the area starting Saturday and continuing to April 4. The hunt includes tasks, quizzes and challenges to be completed for a chance to win prizes. The event encourages residents to explore their neighborhoods by using active transportation like biking, skating or walking.

Last year, the Bike Coalition launched a series of scavenger hunts to help riders of all ages participate in healthy, safe outdoor activities during the pandemic. This year’s hunt kicks off from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday as the coalition gives out helmets, bike lights and more. The giveaway location will be announced on the Scavify app (https://www.scavify.com/download). Participants registered through Scavify will receive a free “swag” item at the Bike Coalition’s canopy.

Using Scavify to track points and complete tasks, participants can move around southeastern San Diego, visiting points of interest and shops, sharing photos and completing mini-challenges to win prizes. Register with Love to Ride San Diego at www.lovetoride.net/sandiegocounty to be eligible for bonus prizes. All are asked to wear masks and practice social distancing. Tasks and challenges are designed to limit person-to-person interactions.

This year, the Bike Coalition will also raise awareness of bike theft prevention. Experienced riders will share how to register bikes on Bike Index and give tips to keep bikes secured.

Southeastern SD Scavenger Hunt is sponsored by San Diego City Council District 4, Love to Ride and the Bike Coalition. Other participating organizations are Black Girls Do Bike, City Heights Community Development Corporation, Climate Action Campaign, Kiwanis Club of Southeastern San Diego, Outdoor Outreach, The Corner House Little Free Library, Valencia Park/Malcolm X Library and the Valencia Park Town Council. Businesses and organizations that want to partner for the scavenger hunt can register for Southeastern SD Scavenger Hunt at https://tinyurl.com/f3h6rp49 anytime before or during the event.
