HOW
IT WORKS: This scavenger hunt will work as
a house party (it will work even better if you can use your yard, your neighborhood
and even your neighbors so the teams aren't falling over each other trying to
complete the challenges). It will also work as a walking or driving hunt in your
town/city. Or it can be a combination of both. So flexible!!!
Your group will be divided into teams of up to 10 people (minimum of 3 or 4 to a team). This hunt is a timed hunt broken down into 2 timed challenges: Photo Ops and Find Items (with a bonus challenge thrown in for good measure). Your teams will have 45 minutes to complete part 1. They will then report to your host/organizer to get part 2. The teams will then be given another 45 minutes to complete part 2. At the conclusion of part 2 all teams will report back to home base. OPTION: You don’t need to time each challenge section. Just give the teams this entire hunt and 1 ½ to 1 3/4 hours IN TOTAL to complete it.
The teams will have a selection of picture challenges to choose from; their goal is to take 8 great photos for the highest number of points possible). They'll also need to obtain specific items which they'll find by solving a word search puzzle - these are also worth valuable points. There's also an additional bonus challenge for them to complete. At the conclusion of the hunt, the teams will do an optional final project - we provide 4 different projects to choose from. They can prepare while you “grade” their challenge sheets to find the winners based on point total (award certificates are included with this hunt). THE WINNING TEAM will have had the most fun as a team while collecting the most points.
This timed scavenger hunt is suitable for your office complex or you can take it out on the town.
For the TEAM BUILDING VERSION, there will be added team meets where team members will move to other teams and additional challenges (included) will be given out. At the conclusion of the hunt, after the teams present a creative and inspiring final presentation, we recommend you have a debriefing session using the team assessment form included with your kit.
TEAM OBJECTIVE: Form an efficient and effective team that communicates well, works by consensus and has a definite plan of action to complete this adventure hunt.
THIS IS WHAT THE TEAMS WILL BE MEASURED ON: 1) Their ability to complete this scavenger hunt by forming a successful, functional team that works by consensus and in which all members participate equally and with enthusiasm. 2) Their communication skills. 3) Their ability to find the hidden strengths in their team members. 4) Their ability to regularly review and evaluate team effectiveness and be willing to take action. 5) Their creative abilities. 6) Their point total.
EXAMPLES: We offer lots of different types of challenges to complete to keep it interesting, engaging and fun, fun, fun!
1. Take a picture of your funniest team member creatively
using a flashlight or a plunger. POINT
VALUE: 500.
2. Interpretive Photo - the teams will create a photo that
pictorially represents a nonsensical or silly statement like this example:
This little piggy went to market; this little piggy stayed home; this little
piggy ate roast beef; this little piggy had a really bad itch. (They'll have a list to pick and choose from.) VALUE:
2,000 POINTS PER PHOTO.
3. The teams will solve a word search of 20 hidden items;
they'll need to then find 10 of those items. Example: a multi-vitamin. VALUE:
100 POINTS PER ITEM.
NUMBER OF TEAMS or PARTICIPANTS: Unlimited number of teams with a minimum of 3 or 4 to a maximum of 10 people per team. You can do this hunt with 1 team racing against the clock to as many teams as you can handle. We do recommend one facilitator/helper for every 2-3 teams to keep things running smoothly, especially when you grade team efforts and tally up completed challenges.
LENGTH OF THE HUNT: 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size of your group*: 5 minutes for opening instructions; a minimum of 1 1/2 hours for the scavenger hunt and about 1/2 hour or more for the grading, (optional) team presentations and awards presentation. *The more teams you have, the more time it will take.
PRE-HUNT PREP TIME: For up to 6 teams, you can put our scavenger hunts together in about 4 to 6 hours (includes shopping for supplies, reading the scavenger hunt and prepping the materials); as you add teams, you'll need to add time to the pre-hunt prep. You mostly need to print (and perhaps edit) the documents included with the kit, pack the collection bags and you'll need to get team prizes, digital cameras and other inexpensive supplies like clipboards and pens. Our facilitator guide provides a supply checklist for you.
