Thank you for your interest in visiting our beautiful campus. A Scavenger Hunt has been created for students for grade 8 and below to give then a fun experience exploring the campus. The packet of information contains:

• MU Information • Scavenger Hunt Hints • Talking Points for each stop • Campus Map

Scavenger Hunt’s do not need to be scheduled and allow more flexibility in your scheduling. Please be aware that we have classes in session throughout the entire year, including summer and winter. If you venture inside any of the academic buildings, please be courteous and keep the noise to a minimum so as not to disturb any classes. Lunch If you are planning on having lunch on campus, you will need to be in contact with Jill Montgomery of Dining Services, at 717-871-7587 and let her know that you will be having lunch at the “Upper Deck” which is open during the normal academic school year from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. The current cost for lunch is $8.00 per person and you must confirm the actual number of attendees a week prior to your visit in order to avoid additional charges from Dining Services. Additionally, bagged lunches are not allowed in the dining facilities. Directions to the Lombardo Welcome Center Our GPS address is 45 James St. Millersville, PA 17551 and students can disembark in the roundabout next to the Lombardo Welcome Center or visit our website at: http://www.millersville.edu/directions/. After turning left onto George Street from Millersville Pike (Rt. 999), stay straight through both traffic lights towards the clock tower and follow the road around towards The Lombardo Welcome Center. Turn right into the roundabout to disembark. Bus Parking/Pick-up Location Proceed out of the roundabout and turn left back onto James Street towards the clock tower and proceed to the second traffic light and then turn left onto Cottage Avenue.

The bus will need to pick-up the students back at the original drop-off location. *If you are not arriving by bus, you will need to stop at the University Police Station, located in Lebanon House, and pick up a day pass to park on campus. Please note that parking passes are not needed on the weekends.

Marauder

This land-bound pirate has been the mascot at Millersville since the 1930's. The Marauder is a huge sports enthusiast, especially for his favorite university. When the Marauder isn't on the sidelines supporting Millersville athletics, he can be found roaming around Lancaster in search of lost treasure. When students need some good luck for an upcoming exam, they place a penny at the feet of the Marauder statue outside of the Student Memorial Center.

Skully

Skully hatched in Millersville in 2004. He is an enthusiastic parrot that loves to be out and about in the community, along with his good friend, the Marauder. The only thing that Skully likes more than birdseed is going to Millersville sporting events to cheer on his favorite team. Skully sports an eye

patch, an earring, size 13 boots, and is always decked out in his school colors of black and gold. Skully loves hugs, and dancing to his favorite song "Shake Your Tail Feather."
