STREET TAG PLANNED ACTIVITIES AND FEATURES FOR OCTOBER / NOVEMBER / DECEMBER 2023
Hello Street Taggers, We trust you're having a wonderful time getting physically fit, having fun, and racking up the points on the leaderboard. Below is the list of activities planned for the fourth quarter of 2023 to help you get the most out of the app and have fun doing exercises you love.
1. The list of the next monthly Saturday Tag Parties at a park in your borough/district has been pinned at the top of our Facebook page and can be accessed here. Please note that at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday Tag Party days, you need to click the "Download Tags" button on the mid-right side of the app's map on the home screen. This will ensure that you have all the latest Saturday Tag Party tags on your app within the vicinity of the park. Also, the tags are stored locally on your device. Therefore, you must be in online mode to use the DOWNLOAD TAG button at 10:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. on Saturday Tag Party days to refresh your local tags.
We will add one special tag with the value of 6,000 points to the pre-announced parks on tag party days. However, the special tag will only be available between 10:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.
2. For the rest of 2023, if for any reason you cannot visit your town's listed park for a Saturday Tag Party, do not worry; we've got you covered. You can take advantage of the #TagPartySelfie in any park nearby and send us your #TagPartySelfie with your username to claim 2,000 bonus points. Do not send an old picture; you must take a new selfie every Saturday Tag Party Day. All selfie entries must be sent ONLY to support@streettag.co.uk, to our Facebook Inbox, or by raising a support ticket through the app menu > settings. The #TagPartySelfie bonus points are open to everyone on Street Tag only on the Tag Party Saturday dates.
