Join us for the 3rd annual Treasure Hunt Event presented by the Friends of the Little Manatee River State Park. Your support of this event will go directly to help us support projects in our park
On this treasure hunt, you will search the park trails for keys to treasure and prizes. You may hike the lands trails on foot or ride the trails on horseback. Follow the map provided for directions to find keys. After your trail quest, turn in your keys for chances to win lots of great prizes, each valued at $25 or more. You must be present to win prizes and pick up auction items.
There will be live music, display and vendor booths, Cowboy Bingo, corn hole games, a silent auction, and a 50/50 drawing. Lunch will be served (see menu below)
