EAU CLAIRE, Wis.–Royal Credit Union this week will be sponsoring the Royal Rock the Riverfront Rock Hunt.
The Rock Hunt kicks off today with clues posted at the credit union’s charity and sponsor locations by 10 a.m. each day and then on the Royal Credit Union Facebook page at 8 p.m. each evening. The first person to find the rock will win the $500 cash prize. The money will be awarded to the winner at the Rock the Riverfront event. Participants can earn more prizes by capturing their hunt and posting photos on Royal’s Facebook page with #RoyalRockHunt2018, the credit union said.
Prizes include Rock the Riverfront t-shirts or free registration for the 2019 Rock the Riverfront Charity Classic Race.
The Rock the Riverfront Rock will be hidden on public property and will not be hidden in any construction sites, the credit union said. Royal Credit Union added it reserves the right to discontinue the hunt at any time if public property is destroyed or vandalized.
Royal Credit Union is being joined as a sponsor by Market & Johnson.
The Charity Classic is being held June 23.
Proceeds for the event will go to three partner charities: King’s Closet, Literacy Chippewa Valley, and Whitehall Public Library. Rock the Riverfront is held in downtown Eau Claire’s Phoenix Park, and includes a 10K and 2-mile run/walk, .5 and quarter-mile youth races, “No-K” for non-runners, music, family games, and food trucks.
