Ok Friends- This is our is it, our final fundraising push...

Spring into Spring Scavenger Hunt 2008.

WHAT: A slightly more adult version of the most popular collegiate tradition started by my roomie Dylan and friends, the Scavenger Hunt (explanation for uninitiated below). Ring in the spring with the boldest, most fab-tastic, bad as it can be (in the oh-so-good way) Scavenger Hunt Fundraiser of the season. Costumes or St. Patty's day attire welcome (but NOT necessary). Come Prepared.

Teams of Three will be completing various tasks, searching out specific items, and testing their collective knowledge, creativity, and ability to humiliate oneself in the effort to finish a list. Prizes will be awarded for Fastest, Slowest, Most Creative, Least Committed, Best Costumes, Best and Worst Prepared, Least Likely to Develop Cankles, Most Likely to run for President, and of course, Best Smile. You DO NOT need a team to come- we'll help you find teammates of you need.

WHERE: Fremont area, beginning and ending at the top of the hill in Gasworks Park.

WHEN: Saturday, March 15th. Check-in is at 4:00 pm, hunt begins at 5:00 pm.

HOW MUCH: $20 per person.
We're coming close to our fundraising goal, but this is it! Our final push! Bring cash to the event. You will have an absolute blast, feel good about it, and there will even be a party at the scaveng-tastic bar, the DOCK, in Fremont post-hunt.

HOW: It's going to be an adventure, so come as prepared as you feel comfortable. Winning teams have come dressed in tights and headlamps, with Spanish dictionaries in hand, but winning teams have also humiliated just such preparation by good planning, quick wits, and a healthy dose of kickassedness.

Please pass this info on to your friends, family and co-workers. We have a goal of 50 Teams.

A brief but important history. Four such hunts occured during college, and they were a rowdy success. Examples of items included on previous lists are as follows: a freestanding volcano of bacon bits at least 4 inches high, getting in a "foot race" with a stranger (and winning), and crayon cartoons of the trials and tribulations of the 43rd President of the United States. It has grown into quite an event. The Spring into Spring 2008 hunt list is safely and securely locked in the "Scav Hunt Steering Committee Vault O' Secrets." (AKA even Lucie, Meg and Siri have no idea what it will be...).

Thanks for all your support so far! Hope to see you there!

Lucie, Siri and Meg
