Scavenger Hunt

SCAVENGER HUNT

You and your partner(s) are going to RACE to complete as many of the questions below as possible.  The team who finds / completes the most questions correctly will win!
RULES TO REMEMBER:  
  1. You don't have to go outside if you don't want to but you won't be able to complete all of the questions.
  2. You MUST stay in a group. You cannot separate to complete more questions more quickly. If you catch another group doing this let me know and they will receive a penalty for cheating. This also means you can only use ONE phone and ONE computer for this game.
  3. The harder the question, the more points it’s worth.
