[SCAVENGER HUNT] Charge your phones, dust off your Instagram: This Saturday, September 8, Squeaky Wheels hosts its latest social media scavenger hunt, titled Squeaky Wheel’s Excellent Adventure. Teams report to Squeaky Wheel at 9am Saturday morning to get the list of rules and objectives, then set off around town to collect photos and videos, which they publish and tag #squeakyadventure. The scavenger hunt ends at 5:30pm with a party at EXPO Market, where winner will be judged. It’s complicated, creative fun: You should read the full details at squeaky.org. Know this, though: The prizes are many and fabulous, running from gift certificates to shops and restaurants to tickets to arts events, and grand prizes as grand as weekend getaways at the Hotel Henry and the Mansion, among others. Know this, too: You can register as a team or as an individual, but either way you save money by pre-registering by 5pm on Friday, September 7. All your registration dollars go to support Buffalo’s alternative media resources center, whose exhibition, residency, and education prgrams are bright feathers in the region’s cultural cap.
