Glowquest

Project Summary:

SUN’s GlowQuest Event is an interactive campus-wide scavenger hunt that introduces Northern Arizona University students to sustainable practices and locations. Coordinated by SUN Entertainment in collaboration with the Green Fund, the Botany Club, and SSLUG, the event engages 200 to 300 students. Participants follow clues to various campus destinations, including the International Pavilion and the SSLUG garden, where they learn about local composting and gardening efforts. At each station, students collect stickers on a bingo card to earn raffle tickets for eco-friendly prizes, such as a hammock and a reusable picnic kit designed to reduce the consumption of single-use plastics. By blending fun activities with educational outreach, GlowQuest successfully fosters a culture of sustainability and connects the student body with vital environmental organizations on campus.
