Description
From the venue:
WHEN: This year's hunt begins June 3, 2023 and continues indefinitely....it only ends when all the floats have been found! Floats are put out throughout the year..they are not all placed at once. The majority of the floats will go out from June through October.
WHAT: 550 Glass Floats (glass orbs about the size of an orange) will be hidden on Block Island. Floats will be dated, numbered and stamped with the shape of Block Island. All floats are clear glass except for 23 (because it is 2023), which are special colored orbs. If you find a float we ask that you register it by clinking the link above.
WHERE: Floats will be hidden on the beaches and on the Greenway Trails. They will be above the high tide mark but NEVER in the dunes or up the side of the bluffs. They will be within a few feet of either side of any Greenway trail they are placed on. Floats are never on Private Property any you would never have to dismantle a stone wall to find a float. Please leave property undisturbed! Floats are not hidden on the grounds of the School or cemetery.
WHO: Anybody!
This is finder's keepers but we ask that you only keep ONE PER SEEKER, PER YEAR, please.
Please register your float (link above)!
Keep looking until you find one!
If you find a second float feel free to leave it where it is or re-hide it! If you choose to re hide a float please be sure to follow the rules and stay off private property, the dunes and the bluffs.
