On January 9, 2016, MOH held a Scavenger Hunt and distributed clues to their mystery at 12 downtown locations. As folks brought in their answers to the mystery, they were also asked to vote for the business that they thought participated the most in the event. The Jacket Zone received the most votes. The store hid the clues throughout the store, and had the participants hunt for them, making it even more fun for everyone. Many of the participants had not visited the store before so this was a great way to bring them in and have them look around!! Thanks to all who participated and voted!! ‐‐Donnelle Culver ‐ 2‐1 DYC Jacket Zone BB Meet & Greet The DYC Jacket Zone will host a Meet & Greet with some of the men's & women's basketball players during & after the BHSU women's home game on Saturday, Feb 6th.
