    Pete’s idea.

    I think it is a lot like horseshoes but big ol’ washers are used instead of those “U” things.

    or it could be a cat washing tourney. see how many cats you can bathe before needing a blood transfusion.

    Dutch oven cook off? Karen has said she would run this if we want to do that again this year.

    I really liked the photo scavenger hunt idea, wasn’t that Brian’s?

    Also, what if we did like the MnGCA does with the hidden medallion. Something hidden somewhere in the park.

    I also like the idea of doing some sort of group kayaking thing. Think we could get a kayaking cache placed?

    I think the hidden medallion thing sounds like fun coupled with the photo scavenger idea.

    We should talk this out a bit. Different photos give clues or pieces of coordinates? Collect them for the Final?

    Here’s one of the vlogger’s videos from the MnGCA’s picnics:

    Here’s the one with the medallion hunt:

    Not that we have to do exactly what they do. We could change things up however we wanted to, put a little Wisconsin twist on it. Cheese hunt? Incorporated with the photo scavenger hunt?

    The way that I did it was that the first picture showed the exact location of the next. Each spot was easily identifiable from the photo. (Park sign, gazebo, etc.)
    The last photo would show the final location.

    I’d watched the Vlogger’s video a couple of time but didn’t see how it was set up.

    We don;t have to make it hard but it should be a little challenging (i.e. lots of walking).

    A prize/trinket for all teams that complete? What would be good?

    Is it OK with the BOD if I spend a little money for children’s activities? Shouldn’t be too much. Should I submit a motion?

    And is anyone picking up prizes for the various contests that we have going?

    We’re having a raffle? I see that on the cache page, but must have missed it being mentioned. Do we have anything to raffle?
