Then on August 1, start at the registration tent (TBD) where instructions, story line, suspects, clue stops, and business/vendor locations will be provided. Develop your team strategy and then wander the Elevate District (Pickerington Village), interrogate suspects, visit clue stations and businesses, get tips from real detectives, solve puzzles, and obtain CSI analysis...then solve the crime!

First-place team of investigators and first-place team costumes win trophies and prizes.

Preregistration is required. Teams who register by July 24 will receive a special detective kit, plus items for kids. Register later, supplies may vary.

The rain date is Aug. 8. Your registration will automatically carry over to Aug. 8 should the chamber postpone the event due to heavy rain.
