The Great NYC Subways and Stations Art & History Scavenger Hunt


Details
This event is being sponsored by Dave Cervini's New York Social Network, (http://www.newyorksocialnetwork.com) Random Events and several of their partner Meet Up Groups. The number of people listed on this meet up reflect only a portion of those actually attending. If you have any questions email the organizer at dave@newyorksocialnetwork.com.
Stay warm and ride the rails of the NYC Subway System in Manhattan as we bring dozens of Meet Up and Social Networking Groups together to compete in a fun day of exploring, socializing even a little learning. No experience is necessary all you need is a desire to have fun and meet new people!
How it works:
-Registration will happen between noon-12:30pm at The Thirsty Fan located across from Penn Station.
-We will randomly put together teams of 5 (unless you already have a team)
-Once you are on a team you will be given a sheet of clues and questions where the only places you can find the answers are within the trains and stations of the Manhattan subways. (It's not hard stuff, we promise!!)
-Each team will be given a designated amount of time (2 hours) from when they leave to return with as many answers as possible.
-After all teams have returned the groups will come together for food, drinks socializing and sharing experiences while we tally up the results!
What kind of stuff will we be looking for? You will be given the specific clues to find at each station and in the subway cars. You will also be looking for historical info/sites and subway artwork. You will also have to bring back some pictures, trinkets and "trash" from your adventure. All in good fun.
Can I come alone? Yes 95% of those attending will likely sign up on their own. If you come alone we will set you up on a fun team.
How should I dress? Casual and for the weather although y0u will be underground 98% of the time.
What is the cost? $10 to participate in the Scavenger Hunt, plus you may need to swipe your metro card 2-3 times. Please bring exact change to the stating point.
What should I bring? A camera phone if you have one. If not no worries. Bottle of water.
Where will I be traveling to? The hunt is designed to begin and end at Penn Station. You will be traveling on several of the subway lines, transferring trains and exploring some stations. All of the hunt will take place on the subways between 59th street and South Ferry.
