The quaint lanes and the bustling streets of our town set the stage for a treasure hunt this Sunday. Ninety minutes. Five kilometres. Ten clues. Are you game?

If you have a two-wheeler or know a friend who has one, discover how skilled you are at driving. For the first time, The Hindu in Puducherry, is gearing up for International Women’s Day with events over two weekends — just for women.

On Sunday, decipher 10 clues to walk home the winner. Weave your way through heritage spots and popular landmarks in town. This is not just about being the fastest to the finish line, but also about making you visit all the spots!

One or two participants are permitted per team on a two-wheeler with a licence. Entry forms are available at The Hindu office, 135, Mission Street, Samsung Plaza, Anna Salai, Bon Bakes on Rangapillai Street, VLCC on Aurobindo Street, Hotel Bon Sejour on Lenin Street, and Be Well Hospital at ECR, 100 Feet Road. Spot registrations up to 7 a.m. on Sunday.

If you make it to the winning team, you will be rewarded on March 8 when The Hindu hosts a panel discussion and individual talent show at Hotel Bon Sejour from 10 a.m. See you at 7.30 a.m. at Le Café on Beach Road this Sunday.

The presenting Sponsor is Sony Center Puducherry. The associate sponsors are VLCC, Sree Nivas Buildtech (I) Pvt Ltd and Integra software solutions. The Indian Women Network will be the Knowledge partner and Be Well Hospitals, the health partner. Prizes include gifts from Harappa, hospitality sponsor is Hotel Bon Sejour and water is sponsored by Classique. For details, contact 98947-56601 or 98433-31098.
