Get Ready for the Summer '2023 Treasure Hunt

To be eligible to earn the National Summertime Pack Award, every year Pack 92 plans activities for our Scouts during the months of June, July and August. Our main event begins in just a few days on July 1st, 2023. This year our team of parent volunteers put together a Treasure Hunt inspired by the 1985 cult classic movie, The Goonies. Instead of following the footsteps of One Eyed Willy, we’ve concocted a story with famed musician Jan Ignacy Paderewski a.k.a. “The Modern Immortal”. We’re so excited to share what we’ve come up with!

Pick up your map and key from the children’s librarian desk at Paso Robles City Library. Participants will find and decipher various codes hidden throughout the city of Paso Robles. We will mark each clue’s location with a Bluebird House built by our Scouts. You can find some helpful hints below.

Kraft Paper Map for the Summer '23 Treasure Hunt showing the greater Paso Robles area on the left, and a closer map of downtown Paso Robles in the center, with the blanks to decode on the right.
Kraft Paper Key for the Summer '23 Treasure Hunt Map with clues as to how to solve the puzzle on the right, stars with clue locations throughout.

To succeed on this treasure hunt, you’ll need to do the following:

  1. Use both the provided map and the key from the Paso Robles City Library to find the locations of each clue.

  2. Grab a pencil and circle the stars on the key. Each star should have a hint to help identify the specific location the clue will be placed.

  3. Then, stack the map and key. Use a pushpin or other sharp tool to poke the center of each star. This will show you the locations on the Paso Robles maps.

  4. Follow the clues! There is no order, but you will need to solve all 7 to claim the prize. The clues will be at their stations for the entire month of July.
