If you didn't manage to participate in the Scavenger Hunt about two weeks ago, you can still have a sneak peek into what happened.
First of all, big KUDOS! to Jon and Hobart for masterminding the entire event, including planning out the three different routes for the three teams and then having to physically try out the routes to ensure that transport and time needed to complete the journeys are within a reasonable range.
Besides the usual parishes, the check points visited by the Scavenger Hunt teams also include the Elvis memorial at the Melbourne Cemetary, the Shrine of Remembrance, and the Queen Victoria Market.
Ask any one who attended and we will attest to the incredible fun and fellowship effervesing among the participants. The level of excitment was hightened with the intense rivalry between oppponent teams.
Like in Amazing Race, the level of intensity climaxed as the teams converged towards the final checkpoint. Having spotted the rival teams, each group picked up pace and literally raced each other till fatigue.
The interesting twist to this Scavenger Hunt is the requirement of the whole team to enter a row boat and paddle to 30 metres from the Studley Park Boathouse where our game masters tasked us to perform a final mission. Try to discern what this mission entails from the pictures.
The Scavenger Hunt concluded with a very sumptous BBQ lovinly prepared by Janan, Maria and Derek which involved gourmet mexican and garlic & herb sausages while we could finally sit back, relax and enjoy each other's company in the environs of Studley Park.
Enjoy the pictures!
