HOW DOES IT WORK?

On Saturday, April 27th, your team of three or four will receive the official list of challenges at noon, the start of the event.  Each challenge has a point value based on difficulty. Your team will document each challenge using a digital camera. The object of the hunt is to complete as many challenges and accrue the highest point total for your team. The photos will be judged on accuracy and creativity in order to determine the winning team. The charity/community organization for whom the winning team is playing will receive ONE HUNDRED percent of the proceeds from this event.

RULES AND REGULATIONS

1. This event is open to all ages; one adult must participate if there are any players under the age of 13.

2. Teams may have either three or four players.

3. The judging panel will be members of 12 Women Care. Final judges' decisions are just that. Final! Judges reserve the right to exercise discretion in interpreting and applying the rules.

4. The members of 12 Women Care are prohibited from participating in the hunt.

5. Once you submit your name and images to the judges, that submission is final.

6. You cannot Photoshop or otherwise manipulate images. All images must be original.

7. No photographing an image off of a website unless stated otherwise.

8. Each picture can only count for one item, meaning that if you take a picture that completes two items, it can only count for one of those items.

9. All photos must be taken, uploaded, and shared on Facebook within the time limit. Any photos taken and uploaded before the official start or after the end of the hunt will not be counted.

10. If we can't figure out what your photo is supposed to be, we unfortunately won't count that either.

11. The scavenger hunt list includes challenges which may involve the “team”, “teammate”, “someone”, or a “stranger”.

*Team means that a minimum of two teammates are present in the photo.

*Teammate means just that. Only one teammate is required to be present in the photo.

*Someone means anyone! Teammate, a stranger, your mom, anyone!

*Stranger means someone that you do not know previous to the hunt. Once you use a stranger in a

photo, that person cannot be used as a stranger again. You know them! They are a part of your family now.

12. Person, place, or thing consists of pictures without teammates (unless stated otherwise).

13. A whiteboard provided by 12 Women Care at the kickoff MUST be included in each photo and clearly display the corresponding number of the challenge.

14. SHS students are responsible for taking the necessary steps to ensure they receive credit for community service hours.

15. 100% of the proceeds from the event will be awarded to an approved charity/community organization of the team with the highest point totals. The winning team will be announced via email within one week of the event.

16. You may not split up your team to “divide” tasks; only one camera may be used per team.

17. We want this to be a fun afternoon; play fair, don’t cheat, and don’t break any laws.

18. There will be no refunds if a team member cannot participate. With permission, you may substitute a team member (replacement person must sign a release form).
