THE
HENRY HUDSON
QUADRICENTENNIAL QUEST
This is an
exciting year in New York State! All up and down the Hudson Valley,
communities are celebrating the Quadricentennial of the discovery of
the Hudson River by Henry Hudson. That’s what Cairo’s Bears and Butterflies 2009
is all about. Our bodacious and brilliant bears have come up with
an exciting and educational quest for you and your family to enjoy
while learning fun facts about Henry Hudson and his journey.
Join in the
adventure, be a ‘QUEST EXPLORER”
and become eligible to win these exciting prizes:
- Grand
Prizes: Season Pass to Windham Mountain (2 prizes available)
- 2nd
Prize: 22” Flat Screen TV
- 3rd
Prize: Two-day Get-Away for Two at Winter Clove Resort
- 4th
Prizes: Windham Mountain Day Pass, Gift Baskets, Dining Gift
Certificates, and other exciting prizes
Here's how to play:
1. Use the Quest Map to visit each of our
unique bears. While enjoying each of Cairo's Cubs, look for the
hidden butterflies somewhere in each bear's design.
2.
Inside one of the butterflies on each bear you will find a clue (a
letter from A-Z or a symbol) that corresponds to one of the “Quadricentennial ‘Quest”ions” about
Henry Hudson. As you go along, write down the cub’s letter or
symbol in the space after that bear's title on the “Henry Hudson Answer Sheet”.
3. Now,
match each bear’s letter or symbol to its corresponding question and
write down the correct answer next to that bear’s title. All the
correct answers can be found by reading "A History of Henry Hudson".
If you
match:
All 40 bears with their correct answers

any one of the above prizes.

one of the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th prizes.
