Boston Children To Search For Key To Treasure Chest With Cash Inside

BOSTON (CBS) – Children are invited to participate in an authentic treasure hunt as they search for the key to a chest that contains a large cash prize.

Brain Chase said that from May 18-22 children 6-16 years old are eligible to search for treasure around Boston.

A key has been hidden somewhere in one of Boston's public libraries.

The child who discovers the key will be able to unlock the treasure chest, which contains $1,000 cash.

A riddle will be posted on the Brain Chase website on May 18 at 3 p.m., revealing clues to the key's location and officially launching the treasure hunt.
