Local Bookstore Organizes Neighborhood-wide Scavenger Hunt Leading up to Small Business Saturday

Itinerant Literate Books has organized the local businesses of Park Circle for a Small Business Scavenger Hunt, starting November 1st and ending on November 25, 2023, with a keystone finale event on Small Business Saturday. In honor of the legendary, beloved, and mysterious giant Duck Pond Duck, participants will be on the hunt for a rubber duck wearing sunglasses in 26 participating businesses. 

The Scavenger Hunt will officially end at 4 pm on November 25th at a closing party at Commonhouse Aleworks with a raffle for prizes from the 26 participating businesses and community partner Lowcountry Local First totaling more than $1,000 in retail value. Players who have visited all participating businesses can exchange their fully stamped card for a raffle ticket. Raffle tickets will also be available for purchase, with proceeds going toward a local charity. There is no fee to participate in this neighborhood-wide local business scavenger hunt.

Where’s the duck?

In Park Circle, of course. The famous Park Circle resident that roves from the Duck Pond to the Marsh—and sometimes even rooftops—has dropped 26 ducklings at 26 local businesses throughout Park Circle. Those who spot them will have the chance to win prizes from Itinerant Literate Books and the participating businesses (full list and eligibility below).

How to play

Anyone who wishes to participate can pick up a Park Circle Small Business Saturday Scavenger Hunt passport at Itinerant Literate Books or any of the scavenger hunt locations. When they find the duck at one of the businesses, they’ll get their passport stamped by an employee. Passports will be available starting on the afternoon of November 1st.
