Summary:
We had a lot of fun on our scavenger hunt. We had a day in a town we didn’t know very well and nothing scheduled. It was a nice, low key way to get to know our surroundings and we met some cool people along the way. I’m not a big fan of guided tours, so it was nice to go at our own pace and learn some unusual things. We would have been snapping pics all along the way anyway and it was nice to share them in real time with our helpful scavenger hunt guide who was always just a text away. We had a blast!

Summary:
Kathryn's team (managed by Grace, remotely) did a wonderful job of leading us through the process.
A few comments:
* Our hunters were all +/- 11 years old (plus a parent) - they were very into it.
* The hunt was fairly geographically concentrated, but you definitely needed a car to hit some of the spots.
* The majority of the activity was in and around Oak Bluffs - would suggest that they give an official starting location so that time isn't wasted up front.
* Good real-time feedback throughout.
* Fun activities!
A great time was had by all.
