June 10, 2021
New Youth Rock Hunt Announced as part of Rock the Riverfront 2021
EAU CLAIRE, Wis. – The RCU Foundation is adding a new contest to encourage families to get out and explore their communities and to promote Rock the Riverfront featuring the Charity Classic. The Youth Rock Hunt is a scavenger hunt that kids can participate in by searching for specially engraved rocks for a chance to win a Royal Credit Union Piggy Bank and $40 cash.
The Youth Rock Hunt starts on the morning of June 11, 2021 and is sponsored by Market & Johnson. Individuals, families, or groups can get involved in the hunt but we encourage community members to allow children 13 years old and younger to find the rocks and redeem the prize. There will be 3 rocks hidden in each of the following communities: Chippewa Falls, Eau Claire, Menomonie, Colby, Whitehall and Rice Lake, for a total of 18 rocks and 18 chances to win. The Youth Rock Hunt will end on June 19, 2021. Find all details and rules at rcu.org/Race and on Royal’s social media channels
Rock the Riverfront featuring the Charity Classic is celebrating 27 years of running and walking to support organizations that make a difference in the communities that Royal Credit Union serves. Proceeds from this year’s event will benefit three partner charities: The Heyde Center for the Arts in Chippewa Falls, Chippewa Valley Theatre Guild in Eau Claire, and Northern Star Theatre Company in Rice Lake. Registration for this virtual event will be open through June 26. Participants can run or walk the 10K or 2 mile routes and youth can take part in a 1/2 mile course anytime between June 5 and June 28. Registration details are available at www.rcu.org/Race.
