EMMS VIRTUAL SCAVENGER HUNT
WHAT IS A VIRTUAL SCAVENGER HUNT?
A scavenger hunt is a group activity where teams compete to complete tasks, find objects, and/or visit locations (thus earning points) on a list provided by the event organizer. Traditionally, scavenger hunt items were printed on paper lists, with players using pen and pencil to fill in riddle answers, or check off locations and items they find. Often, “proof” that a team or player has found an item or reached a location is brought back to the organizer in order for points to be awarded. In the age of smartphones with portable cameras, photos or video clips of team members with specific items or at specified destinations has become a great way of providing proof of teams completing scavenger hunt missions.
