Mill Creek Parks and Recreation has come up with a great way to get Mill Creek Residents out to discover & visit all the parks in the City. They are launching The Hunt for Mill Creek’s Superhero on June 27, 2011.

Each week for 6 weeks, an 8½ X 11 photo of the aforementioned Superhero [He’s wearing a bright blue jumpsuit with red boots and red/white trim] will be placed at each of the parks, one each week. It will be hidden, but shouldn’t be too difficult to find. You will find clues to the park of the week and a map of all the parks on the city website to help you. www.cityofmillcreek.com

So what you do is, you find and visit the park of the week, find the Superhero photo, take a picture of yourself with the photo and email it along with your name and address to: parksandrec@cityofmillcreek.com

Each week that you send in a photo of yourself with Superhero, your name will be entered into a drawing for prizes to be given out beginning July 6th. To give you a head start, the first clue is: “A bookworm would like this park!”

This contest is open to Mill Creek Residents Only. Sounds like a fun activity for young & old and is a good way to discover parts of Mill Creek you’ve never been to or haven’t visited in a while. Do tell.
