How to Play

From April 13th to April 26th, each of the businesses listed below will have have a flyer in their front window with two QR codes on it.

Don't know what a QR code is or how to use it - click here!

One QR code will take you to this instructions page. You will also be able access the contest information from the Manlius Library app and the website. Sign up to participate by clicking on the Contest Entry Form link.

The other QR code will be for the specific business you are at. Scan the QR codes at various businesses and collect the Scavenger Hunt Words! These Scavenger Hunt Words then need to be entered into the Contest Entry Form. 

-Begin by scanning a business QR code. You will see a word describing a picture. This word should then be entered into the Contest Form. The Contest Form has a space to enter the Scavenger Hunt Word for each business. Enter the word for one location or more and then Submit the form. You will get an email with a link that will allow you to go back to your Contest Entry Form to add more Scavenger Hunt Words until May 2nd. 

-You can enter the Scavenger Hunt Words as you go, or you could take a screenshot after you scan the QR code and enter the words on the Contest Form at a later time.

-For every 5 businesses you visit, and correctly enter the word that describes the picture you see when you scan the QR code, you will receive one entry into the prize drawing. If you enter the correct word for all of the businesses on the list, you will receive an additional entry for the prize drawing.

-Submit the contest form by May 2nd.
