The First Annual Masquerade Tribute has ended. All NINE treasure hunts included in the 2021 Tribute have now been solved and treasures claimed! It was such a successful project with near $4,500 dollars donated to charity. (Final total sent in: $4341.59)

There were multiple winners of the hunts (over 40!), and multiple prizes and treasures given out during the course of the adventures.

A huge thanks again to each and every one of the Creators for their exceptional talent in producing the puzzles, and their generosity of donating the treasures to be claimed. Each one made the First Annual Tribute so special to remember. (More about the creators here)

Also, a huge thanks to ALL the participants who gave their time, effort, and monetary contributions. It’s wonderful the treasure hunt community came together and made a difference in lives of others by donating to three great causes.

THANKS AGAIN TO ALL!  

Below is a quick summary of what went down!
