The Scouty Toronto Manhunt.

Scouty’s a fox who pings you on WhatsApp when an event you’d actually go to is on. Once a summer, he goes IRL.

All summer, somewhere in the city, there is a fox. Sometimes it is one of us in a costume. Sometimes it is a QR poster on a bulletin board. Find it, take a photo, post it. Tag @scouty.toronto on Instagram or @Scouty on LinkedIn and you are in.

How it works.

  1. 1

    Spot us in the city.

    We will be at Toronto Tech Week, the World Cup at BMO Field, and most things in between. The fox costume is the easiest to spot.

  2. 2

    Snap a photo. Post it.

    With the fox, with the team, or with one of our QR posters. Tag @scouty.toronto on Instagram or @Scouty on LinkedIn so we see it.

  3. 3

    Winners picked at the end of summer.

    Our team picks favorites from all the tagged posts. No scoreboards, no submissions. Top picks get a fast-track into the Scouty Fellows program.

Want a head start?

Text Scouty and ask where we are.

Scouty knows where the team is heading next. Ask him, he sends you a riddle. Not a press release, not an address. A puzzle pointing at the right night. Solve it, show up, find the fox.
