I have a confession to make. I love the harbor. I love the way traffic backs up in South Aberdeen when THE bridge goes up. I love the chip sealing that happens on the back roads to the beach when summer hits. I really love going to the Gateway Plaza during your lunch hour only to risk being stopped by a twenty minute train. How about being able to enjoy the sunny weather while seeing the rain roll in from the beaches? It is all unique to where we live, and while most people (naysayers really) find it all annoying, I enjoy the quirks of living here.
That is why, when an event comes along that embraces all the greatness and harbor uniqueness and that lines up with the reasons that we started Go Go Grays Harbor in the first place it is such a pleasure to write about. Hunt the Harbor is in its second year and it promises to be a good one!
Wait, you haven't heard of Hunt the Harbor? You are certainly missing out. If you are a fan of the Amazing Race, or just a fan of our own backyard then Saturday the 15th you truly need to be signed up to participate in Hunt the Harbor and at Friends Landing for your first set of clues.

Wait, you haven't heard of Hunt the Harbor? You are certainly missing out. If you are a fan of the Amazing Race, or just a fan of our own backyard then Saturday the 15th you truly need to be signed up to participate in Hunt the Harbor and at Friends Landing for your first set of clues.
In its first year Hunt the Harbor raised over $5,000.00 for local charities and hundreds of businesses participated. The top two teams split the fundraising money 60/40 and donate their winnings to the charity of their choice. Click HERE for the registration link, and remember to register your team before Saturday!
Like the Amazing Race, Hunt the Harbor provides clues that groups must decipher in order to find the next location. At each location you have a challenge that you have to complete that gives your groups points. The more points you can amass the better chance you have of winning and donating to your favorite local charity. Games can range from taking a picture to completing a obstacle course and anything in between! Your team can have up to five people, and you have to decide if you want to bring the knowledge or the strength (or maybe a little bit of both) to help you complete the challenge.
So now you have all the pertinent information, so turn off the TV this Saturday, go outside and enjoy Grays Harbor.
