Completing the City and County of Broomfield Anniversary Scavenger Hunt

This guide gives instructions on how to use the rubbing plates set up throughout the scavenger hunt in Broomfield, Colorado.

Download and print the rubbing guide page, and grab a pencil or crayon.

Fold the sheet on the long side along the first set of cross marks.

Now fold along all the cross marks on the long side. Tip: Use your first fold as a guide, and accordion fold the rest of the paper.

Next, fold along the cross marks in the other direction along the short side. At the end, you should have a paper with 20 squares folded.

When you locate a rubbing plate during the scavenger hunt. Flip your paper over, and match up the number on the back of each square with the number listed on the podium below the plate. In this example, I’m doing the A1 square which is the top most left square of the paper.

Lay your plate on a flat surface. Cover your plate with the correct square on the paper. Now rub using a crayon or pencil over the area. The image will reveal itself. Don't be afraid to put lots of pressure.
