BURIED TREASURE HUNT
While you are reading the Saltwater Taffy adventure, you are invited to hunt for real-life buried treasure over the summer. Have you ever dreamed of finding buried treasure? Well, you’re in luck because we have buried 6 small treasure chests around our hosting schools. Much like the geocaching game, clues will be given via our official Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages. All you have to do is follow us on one or all platforms and the fun begins. How do you know which clues are for your school so you aren’t lost on a wild goose chase? Simply look for your school name in a hashtag format like: #medina #newportheights, etc.
CAMPUS TREASURE HUNT
Before the AUTHOR VISIT, we walked your campus and secretly hid these brightly painted rocks with quotes from the pages of Saltwater Taffy. Find a rock and collect your prize in the office. You get to keep the rock too! Prizes can include the official Saltwater Taffy SAWEET sweatshirt, autographed copies of the book or a very rare autographed ‘one sheet’ of the book cover. Happy hunting!
“Saltwater Taffy is a pure joy to read and explore. It feels like a field trip to Treasure Island with The Goonies. It’s a great inspirational adventure for young minds and those still young at heart.”
