CHAoS in the City: the Blue Bird Hunt

Timeline

May 1st - May 13th: scavenger hunt, social media posts

May 14th: collect your prizes at Scotsman Hill (6pm - 9pm) and watch the Calgary Tower be lit blue at dusk!

Overview

This May, we are hosting the Calgary Apraxia Scavenger Hunt from May 1st – May 13th across Calgary and the surrounding areas. This fun, community-driven event aims to raise awareness of Childhood Apraxia of Speech and foster community engagement.


The scavenger hunt will feature 14 hidden 3D-printed birds placed in various businesses and locations throughout the city. Participants will search for as many as possible, taking pictures and scanning a QR code at each location to earn points. Prizes will be awarded on May 14th based on the number of birds found.


If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to info@calgaryapraxia.ca.


Grab your family and friends to make a difference. We appreciate your support in spreading awareness and look forward to working together!

The short videos will give clues as to where the birds are hidden. Check them out for help!
