Waynedale Community Games Return With $500 Top Prize

The anticipation is building as Waynedale gears up for the fourth annual “Shop Waynedale” event! An enthusiastic group of volunteers has organized an exciting Scavenger Hunt, offering a grand prize of $500 to the individual or family who successfully completes the challenge by collecting the most Stamps from participating local businesses and correctly solves the most items on the scavenger hunt. From July 10-22, the entire community is invited to take part in this thrilling adventure. Don’t miss out!

With more than 50 businesses participating, Shop Waynedale promises an unforgettable experience. Participants armed with the Shop Waynedale Gamebook will have the opportunity to solve clues and also visit various establishments to collect Stamps and secure their chances of winning the coveted $500 prize. The best part? No purchase is necessary to join in the fun! Everyone, whether a resident or visitor, is encouraged to be a part of this thrilling community event.

During Shop Waynedale week, Gamebook holders can take advantage of exclusive discounts offered by participating businesses. With a wide array of discounts available, everyone is sure to find something enticing. Keep an eye out for the Shop Waynedale signs, now adorning major intersections and storefronts throughout the charming neighborhoods of Waynedale in Fort Wayne.

To immerse yourself in the games, claim a chance to win the $500 grand prize, and access numerous local giveaways and discounts, be sure to acquire your very own Shop Waynedale Gamebook. You can find them in this edition of the Waynedale News or pick one up from designated locations along Bluffton Road and Lower Huntington Road, where businesses are eagerly preparing for Waynedale’s most anticipated event.
