The Beavercreek Wetlands have placed 10 spotted turtle ornaments in 5 of parks/wetlands for the public to find and the search kicks off today, Friday, November 24th.
If you find an ornament, scan the QR code on the attached tag and fill out the form in its entirety by Dec. 31, 2023 — and you will be registered to win one of our prizes.
If you find multiple ornaments on the same trail, they ask that you only take one and leave the remaining for other potential finders. Duplicate entries will be discarded when selecting prize winners.
Here’s where to search:
Creekside Reserve: 761 Factory Rd, Beavercreek
Dave Nolin Wetland Reserve: Enter at the end of South Deer Hollow Trail in the Hickory Hollow community.
Phillips Park: 2090 Dayton Xenia Rd, Beavercreek
James Amon Biodiversity Reserve: Enter at the end of Deercreek Dr., via the Fawn Ridge neighborhood. **No ornaments hidden on boardwalk under construction! Surface trail only!**
Dane Mutter Prairie: Access via public walkways in the Hunter’s Pointe subdivision.
The prize winners will be notified via email or phone by January 15, 2024. If a prize is not claimed via email or phone call within 48 hours of notification, another winner will be chosen.
