Scavenger Hunt for Adults
Like we said, every year Skip and I throw a Scavenger Hunt. It’s usually for a birthday, but sometimes we just do it for the heck of it. It’s ALWAYS fun.
Most people know the gyst of a scavenger hunt. People run around looking for hard to find items. That’s what we do but with a few alterations. We usually break into teams of four (so it’s easier to fit into a car), and run around town for the next 3-4 hours collecting as many items on the list as we can.
The rules are simple. You can not BUY any of the items. You can not get any item from your PLACE OF WORK, YOUR HOME, or a FRIEND’S HOME. You must be back by set time or your team will be disqualified. Do NOT get arrested. Simple.
With our lists, we usually have three different sections. 1. Items to find. 2. Things to do. 3. Pictures to take. The “Items to find” are what you’d expect. A hanger. A penny. A Do Not Disturb sign. In the “Things to do” section people have to get creative. Write a poem with each team member’s name in it. Create a piece of modern art. Paint each team member’s finger nails. And now with pretty much everyone having a digital camera, we make sure each team has one and they have to come back with 20 photos of their team (or team member) doing something wild and crazy. Standing in a fountain. Climbing a tree. Kissing a stranger.
At the end of the hunt we add up all the team’s points and declare a winner. You have no idea just how competitive your friends are until you yell “Go!”.
Copies of our Scavenger Hunt lists are for sale for $20.00. Just ask!!
