You won't have to scavenge for something to do on your next date night with this package! Start with a special scavenger hunt for two from Let's Roam and then refuel with a hearty meal for two at Black Bear Diner.

Let's face it: if you're here, you're probably a bird nerd. That means you likely flock to all things feathered, from predatory birds to penguins. Thanks to our friends at the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium, you can have the best of both worlds with this Private Penguin Encounter package.

In addition to a private penguin encounter for 2 people, you'll receive (2) All Ages VIP admission passes, plus an assortment of aquatic items, including The Usborne Big Book of Big Sea Creatures, a Clouded Leopard plushie, a Sea Sweets Blind Box Mystery Plush, turtle magnet, and a reusable LLPA bag.

Please Note: Shipping costs are the responsibility of the winner. Packages may also be picked up at our headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Have you been looking to pick up a new hobby? Or maybe you just love animals and nature so much that you want to be able to bring it to life yourself? Then this just might be the item for you!
