Main Street Greenville
Cure Cabin
Fever with April’s First Friday
GREENVILLE, Ohio- Is your family suffering from cabin fever? If
so, get out of the house and spend some quality family time together
during Main Street Greenville’s First Friday event on Friday, April 1st
from 6-9 pm!
During the event, there will be a small petting zoo on the courthouse
lawn by Valley Exotic Zoo and the Darke County Humane Society.
Main Street Greenville has also prepared a scavenger hunt for kids of
all ages to explore the downtown district! The hunt will include
searching for animal umbrellas and giant tissue paper flowers, while
answering riddles about each participating business.
In addition, there will be an Architectural Scavenger Hunt for older
children and adults. This will be a great way to test your awareness of
the historic beauty located downtown Greenville!
Sponsored by MJS Plastics Inc., the scavenger hunt will feature prizes
for those who complete the challenge. The hunt is not a race and those
who wish to participate can pick-up a form at the courthouse lawn the
evening of the event (in the event of rain, please pick-up the form
inside Hallmark).
The following businesses will be featured on the downtown scavenger
hunt: Bread of Life, Brenda's Beanery, The Bistro Off Broadway,
The Blue Bow Boutique, The Bootery, The Candy Boutique, CMA Church, The
Coffee Pot, Country Primitives, The Don's Pizza, Doug's Pinball, First
United Methodist Church, Hallmark, The Ivy League, Janet's
Broadway Bakery, KitchenAid Experience, Merle Norman, Sadie Grace,
Second National Bank, Montage, First Presbyterian Church, and Sweet
Annie's Cabin.
