Acadiana's Ultimate Virtual Scavenger Hunt

Games of Acadiana – the biggest annual fundraiser for Miles Perret Cancer Services (MPCS) – is turning 25 this year! To celebrate this milestone, from May 30th to June 14th, we're transforming ALL of Acadiana into our playground with a 16-day virtual scavenger hunt full of fun, adventure, and surprises. 

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • FREE FUN FOR ALL AGES - With over 100 missions, we have something exciting in store for every age. Play with family, friends, or coworkers to create memories that last a lifetime.
  • FABULOUS PRIZES - Prepare to be rewarded for your adventurous spirit! Win fabulous prizes, including $10,000, tech prizes, and gift cards from local restaurants and businesses.
  • HELP LOCAL FAMILIES - Participating in Games of Acadiana isn't just about having fun; it's about making a meaningful difference in the lives of local families battling cancer. Your participation helps provide vital resources, support services, and a caring community to those in need.


About the Game

The hunt consists of over 100 “missions.” Each mission is worth a certain point value once completed. The goal of the scavenger hunt is to perform as many missions as possible. Once your team accumulates 10,000 points, you will “earn” an entry into the prize drawing. The hunt is FREE, but entries may also be purchased for $20 each.

Raffle Tickets

Participating in the scavenger hunt is completely free but you can increase your odds by purchasing raffle tickets for $20 each at milesperret.org/raffle. Every raffle ticket increases your chances of winning & helps local families fight, survive, and live with cancer.
