Getting Started 

If you haven’t started yet, simply join THE HUNT 2026 on Goosechase. You can participate using the GooseChase mobile app or directly through your web browser—no app download required! Follow the prompts to get started and find your team.

If you have any trouble accessing THE HUNT, finding your team, or getting started, contact Irelyn at ibaumberger@bbbsmadison.org

Please play fair and only submit photos and videos taken during THE HUNT (this year)–no scrolling back in your camera roll! At least one team member should be in each photo or video you submit.

Read the Instructions! - Make sure your photos/videos are in line with any instructions that are included in the Mission description (example: some photos must have an adult). We want everyone to have fun but also keep it fair, so if we see submissions that aren’t fully completing the Mission, we may ask you to go back and resubmit. Resubmitting Missions - Did you know you can resubmit Missions after you’ve already completed them? Whether you want to use a new picture or update for bonus points, you can resubmit anytime.

Be Safe, Be Kind, and Have Fun - As you head out HUNTing, just a reminder to be a good community member. Follow all rules and regulations in the spaces you visit. Check business hours, where applicable. Have fun, but make sure THE HUNT doesn't interfere with the enjoyment of others around you. Thanks for proudly representing BBBS in our community!

Fundraising

A great way to climb the Leaderboard (and make a difference!) is by fundraising. As a reminder, you don’t need to submit anything on Goosechase for your fundraising points. BBBS staff will manually enter those points each day, based on your OneCause fundraising totals.

An easy way to get started with fundraising is to create a Facebook Fundraiser, which can link to your OneCause page and automatically count your donations. To learn more about setting up a Facebook Fundraiser and entering other types of donations, check out our FAQ page.
