Why the Games of Acadiana Scavenger Hunt Matters for Cancer Families

Beth Guidry with Miles Perret says,

Games of Acadiana is more than just fun and games—it’s a powerful way for our community to come together and support local families facing cancer.

The event begins on Saturday, May 30, and for 15 days, participants will take part in a virtual scavenger hunt with more than 100 music-inspired challenges. All you have to do to gain access is use your phone.

The best part of the scavenger hunt is that you can do these challenges anytime you want to, between May 30 and June 13. There are prizes that you can win, and there is a grand prize of $10,000

It's also free to play! If you want to ramp up your chances at winning, you can purchase raffle tickets for #20 each, and all the proceeds go to the families fighting cancer. The prize drawing will happen live at 10 a.m. during a live stream on Miles Perret's Facebook page.
