Hay? Yes, straw hay bales are scattered all around Queen Creek, Arizona businesses for you to find. As of October 17, 2020, when we went exploring, there were 49 hay bales to locate between October 5 through October 31, 2020. Ready to take on the #HayQC challenge?
The Challenge
Note the straw hay bales are all outside of the businesses which, makes it very simple to find them. The simple steps in this challenge include:
- Take a selfie or photo
- Post using the hashtag #HayQC
- Visit the Queen Creek Recreation Annex with your photos to receive some candy
