Hunt, Discover/Learn, Have Fun!

(1) Solve the clues, (2) find and visit the object of your hunt, (3) snap a picture to memorialize the event and (4) send it to us at DPNA@DeerParkLouisville.com so we can give you credit for your find and share your picture/accomplishment with others.

Fall Scavenger Hunt!

Do you love to take walks through the neighborhood? Have you always wondered about the history of Deer Park? Over the next several months, we will be providing some “hints” to help you seek and find fun things to look for in the neighborhood. You will be seeking historic places and silly things anyone can find!

For example: What “I” walking court in Deer Park? Ivanhoe Court


After you solve the clue:

1. Take a picture (of you and the target if possible)

2. Send the picture via email DPNA@deerparklouisville.com within a week of receiving the clue.


We plan to release new clues on the first of each month! Clues will be released first via our e-newsletter (click here to sign up for the e-newsletter), and here on the website, followed by social media: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram.


Every time you send us a picture that answers the clue you will earn an entry into a gift card drawing from one of our neighborhood businesses.


This spring we will have a drawing for a gift card, and everyone will be invited to a historic tour of the neighborhood by a local expert.


Hint: If you can't figure it out from the clue, we will post the answer - if you have to promise to try and figure it out without looking. You can find the answers by looking here.
