Kindness Benches Scavenger Hunt

Bench Location Slide Show
The Scavenger Hunt ended on February 18th 
Thank you all for participating!
SedonaKind’s latest Kindness project was the creation of sixteen beautiful Kindness Benches which are placed in public places in Sedona and the Village of Oak Creek. Each bench was lovingly sponsored by different individuals, businesses and groups. Each bench is unique and artistically designed to promote Kindness.

On February 8, 2019, SedonaKind opened a local Scavenger Hunt to invite you and your friends to physically locate all 16 benches. Everyone who completed the search and supplied proof that they have visited each bench were entered into a drawing for several fantastic prizes. Prizes included gifts such as Out of Africa Tickets; dinner at El Rincon; Chamber Music Tickets; coveted Jewelry by Heather Molans; a Facial by About Face; New Day Spa, Navajo Pottery, Mosaic Heart, Hairzona hair cut and many more!  Proof was provided by using the letters you find on each bench to complete a phrase which was entered on an electronic form.  All entries were submitted by midnight February 18, 2019. The Drawing took place on February 19th, 2019.


The Winners

​The winners of the SedonaKind scavenger hunt excitedly gathered around the kindness bench at the Sedona Library to receive prizes for finding all 16 benches and unscrambling the secret phrase that spelled out A Path to Kindness.  Sandy wanted to share some of their stories with all of you that worked on the benches or the tour committee.

Later these benches will enter an ongoing Geocaching online event enabling the world to participate. This is an exciting activity to find the locations of the SedonaKind benches, whose GPS coordinates will be posted on a popular Geocaching internet site.

The 16 benches can be found at the following locations around Sedona and the Village of Oak Creek.
​
  • One at Northern Arizona Health Care (Sedona Medical Center - West Sedona)
  • One at the Sedona Library
  • One at the Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park
