3rd Annual Chicago Scavenger Hunt May 31st – June 2nd, 2024 Hosted by eATLAS Adventures To Go App

CHICAGO - EntSun -- CHICAGO, Illinois—History lovers will take over the Windy City for their shot to win cash prizes totaling $5,000 in eATLAS's annual scavenger hunt May 31st-June 2nd, 2024, with this year's unique theme: CHIstory (pronounced "SHY-story").

Home to innovators and inventions, the history of Chicago is the history of the future. From its incorporation in 1837 through its emergence at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition to today's status as one of the world's great cities, Chicago has seen it all. The contest will take players through the Loop and River North to the locations of landmarks that have been etched into the city's fabric. Each stop in the CHIstory scavenger hunt will require players to draw upon their knowledge of all things Chicago, including history, inventions, architecture, sports, food and music.

This is the third year eATLAS has held its ScavHunt, and the two previous competitions have been won by team Chan Plan, who, as they told eATLAS, "intend to three-peat."

"We've curated a scavenger hunt to highlight some of the city's past in an engaging way that allows you to spend time with your friends and family, or solo while learning some things along the way and competing for cash prizes. You might be seeking the history of deep-dish pizza on one stop and then finding Art Deco treasures on the next." — eATLAS President Jon Matuzak.
