On Saturday, Chelsea and I participated in Scavenger Dash Tucson! It was a mad dash around Tucson, trying to complete 11 tasks as quickly as possible, taking pictures or completing challenges along the way!
It was SO much fun!
Karen and Kristen were also a team. Kim and Brian were another team. Out of our friends we were the only ones wearing matching clothes but other teams went as far as wearing pirate costumes or weird princess shirts. There was fun to be had by all, but especially us!
This is before we left for the hunt! Like our matching outfits? Yes, creepy McDonald's Man, we DID plan it!
We knew our day was off to a good start when we put Stevie's sun-shade up in his car and this was the result.
Task #1: Find the MLK quote at the best cafe (Epic/4th Avenue).
Task #2: Find the big, red, lawn ornament (4th Avenue).
Task #3: Find the Power of Kindness benches (University Avenue).
Task #4: Find at least 3 people wearing UofA gear (Cafe Pariso/University Avenue).
Task #5: Look like a fat-kid.
Okay, Task #5 was really to eat 15 Saltine crackers (Cereal Box).
Task #6: Find the weird sculpture (UofA Mall and Campbell).
Task #7: Find the tribute to The Crocodile Hunter (Tucson High School).
Task #8: Find the bridge that looks like a snake (Broadway and Aviation).
Task #9: Find Mayor Bob Walkup's Star (downtown).
Task #10: Find the mode of transportation coming out from the wall (downtown/La Placita).
Task #11: Enjoy some beverages with your friends (The Hut/4th Avenue).Not pictured was our rendition of the YMCA at the YMCA. This was only after we returned to The Hut (in what would have been 2nd place) looking for Victor, David, Alex, Felipe, David, or Glenn. How were we to know that they were the Village People and NOT Scavenger Dash volunteers.
We finished in 5th place with a time of 2 hours and 15 minutes.
The website was right, though, and we gained a year's worth of memories.
A BIG shout-out to our "phone-a-friend" and Command Center Chief, Stevie. He manned the phone and computer while taking care of Shyla and never led us astray. Over and Out.

Um, did you know that you're wearing the same outfit? Stupid creepy McDonald's guy. Other than him, looks like a fabulous day. Who knew Tucson had so much to offer in obscure artifacts.
What a fun and exhausting day!! I was tired just hearing about it!
OMG you did such a better job of describing the day and the race than I did. You rock sister! OH and this just in... you earned the "best teammate in Tucson" award!
