This Small Business Saturday, Worcester will host a thrilling, city-wide scavenger hunt with a grand prize that will have treasure hunters racing to support local businesses. iLAH Jewelry, named one of America’s Coolest Jewelry Stores by INSTORE Magazine, invites residents and visitors to compete in the Diamond Dash, where teams of up to three will vie for a 1.50-carat lab-grown diamond and a $600 jewelry credit.
From 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM, participants will race through Worcester, completing fun and daring challenges at local bars, restaurants, retail shops, and tattoo studios. This year’s hunt includes bold challenges like exclusive “Diamond Flash” tattoo deals offering major point bonuses for the bravest competitors. But don’t worry—getting inked is optional for anyone not looking to go under the needle!
Adding to the excitement, iLAH Jewelry will host Katie Nowicki of Iron Horse Tattoo Collective at their store from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM. Nowicki, a prominent and talented local tattoo artist known for her intricate and creative work, will be on-site to offer exclusive tattoos for participants. iLAH Jewelry is thrilled to collaborate with Nowicki, bringing an artistic touch that underscores the bold spirit of the event.
“We want to offer a fun and exciting reason for people to support local businesses this Small Business Saturday,” said iLAH Jewelry owner, ilah Cibis. Known for her popular Instagram scavenger hunts, Cibis is excited to bring this larger event to Worcester. “Whether you’re getting a unique tattoo, bar-hopping with friends, or capturing your best moments around town for social media, there’s no shortage of ways to win—and you don’t need to break the bank to do it.”
A Day of Adventure, Community, and Creativity
The Diamond Dash will feature participation from a variety of local businesses, including bars, restaurants, tattoo and piercing studios, and retail shops. In addition to the tattoo challenges, participants can rack up points through costume creativity, travel distance, social media posts, and physical challenges like the “Diamond Push-ups” competition at Evolve Fitness and Training.
With a $20 entry fee per team, this event is designed to be accessible for everyone. “We want to show that our community can be both vibrant and supportive, even without a big budget,” Cibis added.
