Enter The Secaucus Photo Scavenger Hunt This Friday, June 4

SECAUCUS, NJ — The town of Secaucus has an interesting history: A 2007 documentary "Snake Hill" revealed a dark secret involving thousands of people in what is presently Laurel Hill Park. A resident once ran for president of the U.S.

To that end, Don Evanson, publisher of the well-read Secaucus Spectator, is organizing the first-ever Secaucus Photo Scavenger Hunt, which will start June 4 and run through June 6. Players get 12 photos via e-mail, and must roam the town to locate the items. Once found, they send a photo, which is time-recorded. The player or team with the most correct and earliest collects all entry fees, which is $10 per player.

"It is a fun way to learn about Secaucus," said Evanson.

So far, more than 40 people have signed up. So the winner will take home at least $400! How it works:

Secaucus Sensational Scavenger Hunt (Friday June 4 through Sunday June 6)

Entry Fee $10 per person, no age limit

Teams may have up to 4 players for $20

Contact Don Evanson at secaucusspec@aol.com to enter before noon Friday, June 4.

On June 4, players will be sent 12 photos of objects in plain sight somewhere in Secaucus. When you locate the object use your cell phone to send a photo of the object and e-mail it to: secaucusspec@aol.com

The e-mail time of receipt of the location and the object is filed. The hunt begins Friday, June 4 at 6 p.m. and ends Sunday, June 6 at 6 p.m.

The winning person or team is the first to locate all or the most objects in the shortest time. Winners are notified Monday morning, June 7.

Winners receive all entry fees, so if there are 20 players = $200. The fun is FREE and you get to know Secaucus better.

Entry fees are due on or before playing. Mail or Venmo to Don Evanson
