Dallas Parks’s launch online scavenger hunt Find It!

dallas parks man-hunt_originalDallas Park and Recreation Department is showcasing its newly created website with a scavenger hunt to help residents and visitors get familiar with the new site. The online hunt, called Find It! @dallasparks.org continues through Thursday at www.dallasparks.org.

Find It! @dallasparks.org encourages citizens to become familiar with the new site, learn more about Dallas parks and recreational programs and facilities, and get a chance to win prizes.

Anyone can join the online search. To participate, hunters must correctly answer three park- and recreation-related questions posted each day on the website’s home page. To view the questions, participants must visit www.dallasparks.org, create an account, then go to the scavenger hunt page. Answers are found within the website’s various categories. Complete contest rules are available at www.dallasparks.org.

Winners will be chosen from the correct entries each day and announced on Friday, August 1. Prizes are tickets or passes to the Dallas Arboretum, Dallas Zoo, Bahama Beach Waterpark and Southern Skates Roller Rink.

The new website is user-friendly and easier for citizens to access information and contact each of the department’s five divisions, according to park and recreation officials. The site allows for greater and enhanced communication with users and it features such functions as streaming video, interactive facilities maps, calendars, alerts and community engagement tools.
