Saturday, March 20, 2010 - 10:00 am to 2:00 pm | Cost: $1*

Celebrate the First Day of Spring with URBIA Adventure League. Get your active family time outdoors on a treasure hunt with URBIA’s newest adventure booklet: “Seeking California in a World of Plants”. Your family will form a team on a quest for botanical bounty at the most botanically diverse place in the city: The San Francisco Botanical Garden at Strybing Arboretum. So get ut your magnifying glasses and set aside about 2 hours for your team’s adventure.

Free event, but adventure booklets are a sliding scale of $1 to $5

About the Treasure Hunt: With your booklet in hand, you’ll be off exploring plants from exotic regions of the world while solving clues to seek a California land where oak trees spread overhead. This is not a tour book, but an immersive, sense-of-place adventure you can complete on your own schedule! Your kids will find activities and ideas to feed their growing hearts and minds. On the way, hidden waterfalls, a banana tree, jungle-like pathways, a San Francisco rainforest, and a secret grotto will challenge your team’s way-finding skills. A special hidden box awaits!
