How would you like to fill 2024 with exploration, adventure, exercise, family bonding and free prizes? Get to know the Decode Douglas County exploration game, a modern-day scavenger hunt through several spectacular open spaces and parks in Douglas County.
Start by picking up or printing your own free Decode booklet. Then head off on your first adventure. The journey will take you through eight Douglas County Open Spaces or Parks where you’ll discover a wooden post with a passport stamp on top containing a numeric clue. Use a crayon or pencil to create a rubbing of the clue that will lead you to the next location.
Once you’ve collected eight stamp rubbings, you’ve cracked the 2024 code! Use the numbers you’ve found to unlock the Decode Douglas County Outdoors treasure chest – you’ll win a prize and be entered into the grand prize drawing in December. If you’ve participated in Decode Douglas County in the past, you’ll have a whole new set of Open Spaces or Parks to visit, with a new code to crack this year!
Once you’ve completed the game, keep exploring! More than 46% of Douglas County is public or protected land. Learn more about the County’s efforts to protect natural resources and historic assets.
Decode is possible through a partnership with Douglas County Open Space and Natural Resources and Douglas Land Conservancy.
