PLAY THE GAME

Don't miss the fun! To play The Great Park Pursuit, all you need is a minimum two-member family team (one adult 18 years or older and one child under 18) and the desire to have a great time, all the while discovering the beauty and unlimited activities of Connecticut's parks and forests.

The Great Park Pursuit is an eight-week contest that will have you decoding clues, discovering parks and forests across the state and participating in fun activities and challenges - all for a chance to win fabulous prizes such as mountain bikes, camping equipment and more. The game kicks off on Saturday, May 6 at Dinosaur State Park in Rocky Hill. Teams can arrive anytime between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.

Each week, you'll be provided with a clue to one of Connecticut's parks and forests. Additional hints will be provided here throughout the week to help you figure out which park you need to visit next. Depending on the week, you can visit the park anytime that week or on the following Saturday for a specified activity. At each park, you'll be asked to complete an activity - hike, fish, participate in a scavenger hunt and more. When you complete the task, you'll be given the clue to the next week's park or forest.

Earn 10 points for each park or forest where you complete the required tasks. The top point scorers will then compete in a challenge at the final park to determine the grand prize winners. Additional prizes will be awarded to the remaining top teams.
