HOW IT WORKS: You'll need about 2 hours minimum for this hunt (unless you remove some challenges). Your group will be divided into teams of up to 10 people. Each team will receive a collection bag (knapsack, duffle bag or even a plastic shopping bag will do) containing a digital camera, their challenge sheet - the hunt itself - and various supplies. They will then embark on the scavenger hunt, taking pictures, obtaining specific items, completing a creative project and a San Francisco trivia quiz. All the challenges are worth valuable points and there are some bonus point challenges as well. To customize the hunt, you can easily add additional items, pictures and projects to the list - whatever you need/want to do to make it best suit your needs. 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.

NUMBER OF TEAMS or PARTICIPANTS: Unlimited number of teams with a minimum of 3 or 4 to a maximum of 10 people per team. 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: Allow 2 - 4+ hours, depending on the size of your group: 15-20 minutes for opening instructions, warm up game and team organization; 1 1/2 - 2 hours for the hunt and about 1/2 hour (or more) for grading, team presentations, awards and optional but recommended team assessment discussion.

PRE-HUNT PREP TIME: For up to 6 teams, you can put our scavenger hunts together in about 4-6 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.

EXAMPLES: Scavenger hunt is broken down into the following categories: 20 picture challenges (they'll make for GREAT memories of your hunt and San Francisco), 15 collection challenges, a mini San Francisco trivia quiz (8 questions), a fun and creative project and a final team presentation (optional). We provide lots of different types of challenges to complete to keep it interesting, engaging and fun, fun, fun!

• Take a picture of your entire team looking wicked and naughty (use your imaginations!) on what was known during the Barbary Coast era as “the wickedest street on earth”. Where are you and why did the street have such a reputation?
• Collect an item to prove you visited the Union Square bar with the red velvet couches, gilt-colored walls, cherubic women dancing on the ceiling and extravagant chandeliers. Their specialty drinks include Yellow Snow, Candy Cane and Strawberry Shortcake. And they only accept cash. This is a very specific location – no creative substitutions here.     

NOTE: This hunt is NOT a riddle hunt where one solves a riddle to find the item or the next location.
