Street Scramble can be enjoyed by anyone who (a) can travel under their own power for 90 minutes – walking, running, biking, wheelchair, skating, or scootering, (b) can follow a street map, and (c) likes to explore.

When you arrive at Street Scramble, you will register (or check in, if you pre-registered). Then, at 9:30, you will receive a map with about thirty checkpoint locations circled. Each circle has a number between 10 and 99. The point value of the checkpoint is equal to its number rounded down to the tens; for example, checkpoint 35 is worth 30 points; checkpoint 12 is worth 10 points. You will also receive a question sheet with one question per checkpoint – see below.

You (together with your team, if you have a team) will then plan which checkpoints you will try to visit, and in what order. Your team will need to stay together at all times. You can change your plan as you go along, but it's very helpful to at least start with some kind of plan.

At 9:50 there will be a pre-Scramble briefing where the event director will review rules and safety.

At 10:00 the start will be announced, and you will head out to visit checkpoints. Again, your team must stay together at all times.

When you arrive at a checkpoint, there will be no sign or person to let you know you've found the right place. You will answer a simple question about the location, found on your question sheet, to prove you were there. All questions are multiple choice. For example, "What is the last word on the plaque next to the statue? (a) Arts (b) Commission (c) Space"

To participate in the 90 minute option, you must return to the event center by 11:30. To participate in the 3 hour option, return by 1:00. You can decide which option you want while you're out there. Returning on time requires planning!

When you return, we will score your question sheet while you enjoy lunch, included in your entry fee. After lunch, award ribbons will be given out for those with the highest scores in different categories.
