GEO-Scavenger Hunt

LOOK at all the cars. This has to be the sign of a fun event!
We divided into 4 groups of 3 or 4 kids each with a couple of adults and at least one GPS device. Here are a few of the kids waiting for another group to move on before they try to find the next cache...... Mrs. Fortun is keeping them entertained with Simon Says~!

Here are a few Thrills & Skills kids, their friend Kora and a new Green Earthling friend, Christina. They are on their way to Cache #3.

So - here are a couple of Thrilling Mom's with some GREEN kids at Cache #4. They are reading the cache ticket and figuring out what to do with all that "floss"... Um - I think it is to turn into Friendship Bracelets! And then - on to Cache #5...

Here is Jessie with her group deep in the woods at Cache #5. It's a good thing that this one had FOOD in it and that the bears didn't root it out overnight while it was hidden. Hmmm - I wonder if there are any MORE granola bars in the woods! Gabbys' doing a nice job reading all about what to do with the snacks and how to find the next cache!
When it was all over everyone gathered at "Headquarters" to redeem their raffle tickets from Cache #2 for Stewarts Ice Cream Cone cards, use their marshmallows and chocolate chips from Cache #1 in their cocoa, and Mrs. Corcoran taught everyone all about friendship bracelets and how to make them with the floss found in Cache #4..

Here is the quintessential GROUP SHOT! What a great great bunch of kids and adults. Thanks everyone for participating with a good attitude, being real troupers with the cold windy morning weather and CONGRATS TO ALL - I think everyone found all five caches! I can't wait to see some friendship bracelets and special buttons "around the town".
