Scavenger Hunt

Overall Cost: $
Complexity: 1

This one takes a little bit of organizing, but if you can pull it off, there’s a lot of fun to be had. Social media can make scavenger hunts even easier – have your participants take photos of the items on their lists and use a hashtag to track them.

Things to Consider

  • Be sure to plan the hunt route ahead of time so that it’s safe and fun for participants of all levels of ability.
  • Establish if participants can do it via car or on foot.
  • Consider having an alternate day in case of poor weather if your participants will be on foot.
