How to play

  • Pick up a game card at any of the 21 participating businesses.
  • Each spot will hide a treasure in its window display — it’s up to you to find it + match that item with the store on your game card.
  • Every hidden treasure that you correctly find is an entry into the contest — you can turn in your card with just one or all 21 hidden items found. Pro tip: Ask an employee to initial your card for an extra raffle entry.
  • Submit your card by Friday, Jan. 3 (along with a minimum $1 cash donation) to Locals Only Gifts & Goods, Four Bridges Outfitters, or Learning Express Toys.

The three winners will be announced via NSMC’s Facebook + Instagram pages. Happy hunting.
