Bosomii to host breast cancer awareness scavenger hunt at Quarry Walk

 Get ready to run amok, amok, amok at the Hocus Pocus Breast Cancer Scavenger Hunt! 

Join BOSOMii on October 17 from 2–5 p.m. at Quarry Walk in Oxford for a wickedly fun adventure filled with riddles, clues, local businesses, treats, prizes, and a little breast health education along the way.

How it works:

 Pick up your entry card at the BOSOMii booth on the Green ($5 per participant)

 Follow the clues, solve the riddles, and collect stamps as you make your way through participating Quarry Walk businesses.

 Each stop will have a small candy, trinket, or prize waiting for you along the way!

 Fill out your entry card with your name, phone number, and email so we know who to summon if you win a grand prize.

 Return your completed card to the BOSOMii booth by 5 p.m. to be entered into the prize drawing.

And keep your eyes peeled…

Tiny “Breast Cancer is BOO-Sheet” ghosts will be hiding throughout Quarry Walk!  Find as many as you can along the way — whoever collects the most will win a special prize.

Come for the Hocus Pocus. Stay for the fun. Leave with a bag of goodies and a little more breast health knowledge than you came with.
