As a Girl Scouts leader, I am always looking for new and clever ideas for fun meetings.  My girls are now Cadettes and every year for Christmas we have gone to Denny’s (or something similar) and bought them hot chocolate and french fries and done a gift exchange.  This year we decided to try something new.

I know that I always appreciate finding ideas on the web and thought I’d share.  I have compiled a few different hunts that I have found to fit my girls and the area we are located.  Hope someone else can benefit from my work:)

3. All team members need to stay with their team at all times.  You may not divide the hunt tasks.
