Treasure hunt for Neighbourhood House Week

This week is Neighbourhood House Week and to celebrate, the combined network of neighbourhood houses and community centres across Maribyrnong are hosting a monopoly based treasure hunt.

While Neighbourhood House week will end on Friday, May 16, the treasure hunt will continue on until the end of May and it’s not too late for members of the community to get involved and potentially win a range of prizes.

Manager of the Duke Street Community House in Sunshine, Emma Price, explained what people needed to do in order to play.

“All they need to do is pop into one of the neighbourhood houses or community centres in Maribyrnong and pick up their game board,” Ms Price said.

Once they have their game board, competitors need to visit as many community centres and neighbourhood houses in Maribyrnong as they can until the end of the month.

They need to collect and stick property tiles from each centre to their game board and once they’ve visited and collected tiles from three and added their personal details, they enter the draw for the grand prize.

The grand prize includes a $100 EFTPOS cash card, a $60 gift voucher for short courses at Yarraville Community Centre and a range of memberships and free classes at a number of other neighbourhood houses and community centres in Maribyrnong.
