There’s a potpourri of locations. When people arrive at them, they use a bar code scanner to get the next hint of where the next place is located,” Tom Durment, an Optimist Club Board member told the Glenview Announcements.

Prizes include a weekend stay at The Abbey in Lake Geneva, Wis., a $100 gift certificate for Abt Electronics and two $50 Visa gift cards from Glenview State Bank, according to the Glenview Announcements.
