What's the Hustle?

The Bmore Hustle is a self-paced scavenger hunt that takes place from Friday August 14th - Saturday August 22nd. On the start date, you will be given all details and resources you need to complete challenges. You do not need to complete all challenges. Complete as many as you can in the time allotted. The top two verified scores will receive one of two prizes listed below. The top score will receive the prize of their choice. The second highest score will receive the other prize. If there’s a tie, we’ll select randomly.

Prizes: (1) $50 gift card to SoBo Cafe or (1) DeWALT 12v Drill & Driver Kit (value $140). 

Challenges that earn you points are focused on fun and meaningful things you can do safely by yourself. Most tasks don’t require you to even leave home! For those that do, they are still able to be completed while practicing safe social distancing and complying with all state and local regulations. If you are not comfortable completing a task, no worry! You do not need to complete every task to submit your score or for a chance to win.

Many challenges focus on the social media sites Facebook and Instagram. We understand not everyone is active on these sites. The reason we emphasize these platforms is that most of our broader audience is on these channels and this is the best way for the ToolBank to generate buzz about our service and future events. You can still compete in the fun even if you are not on these social media channels!

This challenge will start on Friday, August 14th at 4pm and go until Saturday, August 22nd at 11:59pm (deadline for submission of score cards). We’ll then host a Winners Announcement virtually on the evening of Tuesday, August 25th.

What Kind of Challenges Can I Expect?

While we can't reveal every detail of the challenges until the competition starts, here are two samples that give you a good idea of what to expect:

* We have a list of restaurants and breweries who have supported us in the past and will grant points for participants who can prove they ordered from one or more of these locations during the challenge dates.

* Another challenge will ask you to document yourself picking up litter in a safe manner for points.

* In true ToolBank style, all challenges focus on our work and our broader community of partners.
