HOW TO PLAY:

  • Take a selfie with the clue you find, and post it on your Facebook or Instagram profile. (Posts or stories will be accepted). You must tag the St. Cloud Area Family YMCA and use #ScheelsScavengerHunt in your post.
  • The first three people to post a selfie with all 3 clues will receive a $50 SCHEELS gift card!

The Homegrown Festival & 5K is back at Wilson Park this spring! Enjoy a large craft and artisan fair, paired with a FREE community concert with live music from The Arcanes!
