Fourth Annual Great Downtown Duck Hunt – “Duck and Cover”

The Hattiesburg Pocket Museum’s 4th Annual Great Downtown Duck Hunt (a scavenger hunt for all ages) will be held Saturday, September 23rd from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. 
Two hundred “Ducks” (50 more than last year) will be hidden throughout downtown Hattiesburg.  Among the 200 “ducks” will be 3 “Special Ducks” and 1 “Golden Duck”. 
“Ducks” can be redeemed for prizes at the Hattiesburg Pocket Museum.  Prizes will include gift cards for “ghosts of exhibits past” (items big and small from past exhibits.) along with goodies from downtown area merchants including Blooms, Lucky Rabbit, The Author Shoppe, McKenzie’s on Main, Hub Spins, Twin Forks Wine and Provisions, Honey Boutique, Church Street Cakery, Saenger Theater, Smith Drug, African American Military Museum, Hattiesburg Zoo and more!  
 
There are specific Duck Hunt rules to make the Hunt fair for everyone.    
 
Duck Hunt Rules are:

  1. No searching for “Ducks” prior to 10 a.m.  If you are seen doing so (by our secret downtown spies) you will be disqualified from turning in a “Duck”.
  2. Only ONE “Duck” per person – no more than 3 per family!  Please leave any other “Ducks’ you spot in their hiding place so others can have fun too!
  3. “Ducks” are hidden on streets and alleys around the Pocket Museum and as far as Lucky Rabbit, Blooms, The Depot Coffee House and Main Street Books.
  4. Once you find a “Duck”, you can return to the Pocket Museum and draw for a prize.  You get what you draw, but feel free to trade with other Duck Hunters.
  5. The Duck Hunt ENDS at 12 noon, sharp!  If you find a “Duck” after that time, your “Duck” is just a duck and is not eligible for a prize.
 
Guests wearing their 2023 Duck Hunt t-shirts to the hunt (available for purchase at the Hattiesburg Zoo Gift Shop and the Visitor’s Center) will receive a free sweet treat from Hub City Spins. 
 
The Saenger Theater will be open for access to restrooms, snacks and beverages and the Art-O-Mat will be full of fun art.
