Please note that we will be asking everyone to follow strict Covid precautions during this event.  Sammy Social is a member of several social groups in the city.  One particular day Sammy attended several events, met with friends and toured some historic sites near Herald Square.  By the end of the night Sammy met a horrible fate and the police need your help to solve this case!   Join us for this fun day where you will join with other members of our group to set out on a mission to find clues to solve Sammy’s case. Along the way you will learn amazing bits and pieces of NYC history that you probably never knew.  The best part is that at the end of the hunt you can socialize with all the teams to talk about your adventure!

How it works:

-Meet at the monument of James Gordon Bennett in Herald Square (across from Macy’s Broadway entrance)

-If you don’t have a team we will put you with other fun people in teams of 4-5.

-Once you are on a team you will receive a sheet retracing Sammy’s steps that day.  You will go out into the neighborhood to find clues and fact that will help you solve Sammy’s Case.  Along the way you will also learn a little NYC history!

-Each group will have 90 minutes to find as many clues and solve the case.  You will return to starting place for more socializing while we tally up the scores.
