2026 ITF Silent Auction Fundraiser

What:

Rootles^®- Quests for the Curious will create a treasure hunt activity for up to 20 participants for the winning bidder.  Hunt may be utilized for a graduation or birthday party, corporate teambuild or simply a general celebration/get-together.  We can work with the winning bidder to try and match up best for whatever event they're going to be hosting.

Where:

The offered activity will be held around Downtown Fort Collins, CO.

When:

The winner of the auction item can schedule with Rootles to find the time that makes the most sense for you. We find that the best hunts take approximately 1.5 - 2 hours to introduce and complete and and are well suited to finish up at a location where participants will have an opportunity to relax and enjoy each others company.

How:

While everyone will be provided with detailed instructions when we meet to start the hunt, the general idea will find each of the teams solving the same clues, throughout the Fort Collins area, and locating a precise final location. The clues will require group thinking and teamwork to solve and will lead teams to different locations where they will need to gather information necessary to find their final destination and solve an overall puzzle. Select team members may need to walk further than others, though nobody will need to walk more that 1-1.5 miles. For this reason comfortable shoes are strongly suggested.

Why:

If you’ve ever participated in a treasure hunt, then you likely remember how much fun it is to puzzle out where you’ll find your next clue, while if you've never had the pleasure of going on a treasure hunt, then this is a perfect opportunity to experience an absolutely great way to explore your surroundings!

Value:

Minimum bid for this item is $450; regular price ~$900
