Additionally\, all downtown businesses are invited to participate in this year’s ExtravaGavenger Hunt\, which is the extremely popular downtown-wide scavenger hunt that hundreds of students will complete in order to win an exclusive event t-shirt and a chance to win one of several fantastic prizes.
