Santa’s elves have descended on downtown Rochester, find them all for a chance to win prizes!

Published on

Rochester Main Street is pleased to announce the return of Elf Off The Shelf, a fun downtown scavenger hunt geared toward children and families, starting December 9. 2022.

According to Rochester Main Street board member Jeff Bisson, the activity attracts dozens of children and families to downtown Rochester.

“We look forward to this event because it shines a light on our downtown business community,” said Bisson. “We’ve hidden elves in several businesses and other locations. It’s a lot of fun and a great way to explore downtown. It’s also a great time to finish up some of your holiday shopping while you search for elves.”

Participants that finish the scavenger hunt will be eligible to enter a raffle for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the downtown business of your choice. 4 raffle winners will be selected at random on December 31, 2022. The winners will be posted on the Rochester Main Street Facebook page.
