Welcome to the Cuzco scavenger hunt!
Rules
KEENERS CAN SCOPE OUT LOCATIONS THE DAY BEFORE, BUT EARLY PHOTOS ARE NOT ALLOWED! TEAMS WILL BE ANNOUNCED THE MORNING OF THE HUNT.
THE FAMILIES ON WINNING TEAMS EACH WIN $250 OFF THEIR NEXT WITW/CULTURECHALK COLLABORATION TRIP!!!
Each team will be given 40 soles cold, hard cash-money.
Teams are to take the money and accomplish as many of the activities listed as possible; each item found or activity completed has a point value that will be tallied at the end of the hunt.
The hunt ends at 1:00 pm at the Hotel Sonqori Dining room for lunch. Teams that arrive early will be docked 20 points for every minute that they are early. Teams that arrive late will be docked 30 points for every minute past 1:00 pm.
Photos are to be replicated as identically as possible. The angle of the photos matters. You are to take the photos from the same angle that they were taken from when putting this hunt together!
5 points extra for group photos at each location.
BONUS Photos with different Baby Alpacas are all worth 20 points, and you can take as many as you want, as long as they are different alpacas. NO PHOTOS FROM OTHER DAYS!
