Scavenger Hunt: With A Twist!

 Teams- open your envelopes! Use what is inside to purchase an item uptown.
Wonder how much is in here? 
What?!

You've got to be kidding! $1 to shop uptown?
The mission was to purchase an item then receive their next 
set of directions at the park.
Everyone was asked to fill out a fact sheet, and make a story based on 
their purchase.
First team arrived with a bottle of bubbles. This should be an interesting story girls.


These two had a crazy bird and an atlas. Hmmm.

Finally everyone arrived and got busy writing up the bones of their story.
Time to return to the library- that's where the ice cream is.



Refreshed, everyone was ready to share their stories with the group.
It's a mystery!

That bird is going places!

Lemon drops & Letters

Bubbles galore!

Our "finale" is Tuesday, July 31st at noon. 


Also, to all of you who have been coming to the summer reading programs
we look forward to seeing you Wednesday, August 8th at 10 a.m. to see 
"Baffling Bill" the magician.
