About the Event:
The Roanoke Valley Preservation Foundation’s Annual Pub Crawl and History Scavenger Hunt is a fun way to learn more about Roanoke’s historic landscape while helping the foundation raise money to further our mission of preserving the valley’s most important architectural and cultural icons.

Compete for prizes by completing a fun 1920s history-themed scavenger hunt featuring questions about people and places important to Roanoke’s past!

Participants proceed at their own pace visiting participating establishments after checking in at Corn Beef & Co between 1:30 PM – 2:30 PM where they will receive their History Scavenger Hunt instructions and sign a liability waiver.

Food and beverage specials will be available at the participating establishments on the pub crawl. (No purchase is required to compete in the History Scavenger Hunt.) In addition, a RVPF host will be at each establishment to provide a local history trivia question to those participating in the History Scavenger Hunt.

End your pub crawl by 5:00 p.m. at a designated location where you will turn in your History Scavenger Hunt question answers. RVPF hosts will then tally the scores of the correct answers submitted, the results will be announced, and prizes will be awarded.

Participating teams who choose to dress in 1920s historical fashion – “dress your decade” – will receive one (1) free History Scavenger Hunt answer to give them a leg up on those who do not!

Additionally, teams who dress in historical fashion will also be entered into a costume contest!
