Win Free Pizza for a Year at Crust Chandler’s 2nd Annual Great Rustica Race
Tuesday, May 24
Free pizza for a year sounds too good to be true, doesn't it? Well, it's not for those who compete in Crust Chandler's second annual Great Rustica Race. This Tuesday is National Scavenger Hunt Day, and the Downtown Chandler Community Partnership is celebrating by hosting a scavenger hunt from 6 to 10 p.m. Teams of two will check in at Crust Chandler before searching for items on the scavenger hunt list and then returning to the restaurant. The top three teams with the shortest race times will win prizes, including free Rustica pizzas for a year and gift cards from Crust and other merchants. Those who don't place won't walk away totally empty-handed, though. Crust Chandler also will host a post-race party downstairs at The Ostrich featuring complimentary pizza and soft drinks from 8 to 10 p.m. Registration costs $10 per team. Call 480-917-4903 or drop by Crust Chandler in person to register. For more information, visit Crust's website.
