Visitors of all ages are encouraged to go in search of leprechauns hidden throughout the Old Sacramento historic district and at participating businesses to try their luck piecing together riddles within an activity book. Each leprechaun will have a corresponding secret word that must be filled in on the activity pages to move on to find the next hidden leprechaun. Participants will need to fill in each clue to solve the secret code at the end then submit answers to enter drawings for gift cards to support local businesses. Once complete, participants email the secret message to info@oldsacramento.com<\/a> by March 18 to be entered for a chance to win. Interested participants can pick up an activity book at the Visitor\u2019s Center, located at 1000 2nd Street or can be downloaded here<\/a>.
