Hunt for a glass float in Lincoln City

Saturday, October 17, 2009

The annual Finders Keepers program is underway in Lincoln City. Visitors to Lincoln City have the opportunity to find a glass float on the beach through Memorial Day, 2010.
Over 2000 hand crafted floats will be placed along the 7 ½ miles of public beach between the Roads End area and the Cutler City area. Floats may be found above the high tide line and below the beach embankment. They are not hidden on the beaches during storms.

When you find a float, call the Visitor and Convention Bureau, 1-800-452-2151 or 541-996-1274, and register your float. They will send a Certificate of Authenticity and information about the artists who crafted your float.

Special drawings are held monthly at the Visitor Center for glass floats. Bring a bag of beach trash to the Visitor Center, 540 NE Hwy 101, and fill out an entry form. Handicapped persons with a handicap sticker number are also eligible to enter and win a monthly float drawing.
