a news release of Ottawa County Parks
Ottawa County Parks is excited to announce the return of the Parks Challenge in 2026, now featuring a brand-new Scavenger Hunt. Thanks to the creativity and generosity of Kristopher Reinhardt of Edward Jones, park visitors can take part in a year-long adventure designed to highlight Ottawa County’s parks in a fun and interactive way.
The Scavenger Hunt runs throughout 2026 and invites participants to follow clues, explore county parks, and search for hidden tokens. Each season, three clues will lead to one county park, for a total of four mystery parks during the year.
The first participant to find the hidden token at each mystery park will win $250. Participants must be registered to be eligible. If the token has already been found, visitors can still participate by searching for and scanning a QR code at the site to enter a quarterly prize drawing.
Reinhardt shared why supporting this effort was meaningful to him:
"Ottawa County Parks have become a foundational part of who I am. I didn’t know or understand that when I started exploring them," said Kristopher Reinhardt, sponsor of the 2026 Scavenger Hunt. "I have visited these places during some of the most triumphant and hardest times of my life. Each time, the Parks have amplified the highs and softened the lows. Every visit has left me feeling less stressed, happier, and more optimistic. This is the true prize of the Scavenger Hunt. The money is simply an incentive for people to start their journey.”
Clues will be released on social media at the beginning of each month by Kristopher Reinhardt and the Ottawa County Parks Foundation. Participants may also sign up to receive clues via email.
