Tomorrow after the flag ceremony and going on till four o'clock patrols will be given a set of questions and told to hunt for treasure around camp. They will be coming up to adult leaders who fill out these forms and asking you questions. They can not ask questions like "Which of these Treasure Hunt Questions is about you?" but rather each scout in the patrol is allowed to ask you one specific question besides your name. The questions they will be asking you are "Was you the 1952 Ini-to Lodge Chief" or "How many years have you been scoutmaster", etc. The first patrol outside of your troop to ask you the correct question should receive a totem from you. The totems and the questionnaire themselves will be used to compute a final score. Questions and answers should be given out of ear shot of other patrols. Keep giving the correct answers out all day (9am to 4pm) but the first patrol outside of your troop can earn your totem. Remember the whole point of this contest is to promote friendship between troops and adult leaders in Spalding District.

"Patrol Treasure Hunt"
This competition starts at 9:00am and lasts till 3:30. Please turn in completed forms to the Camporee headquarters tent for scoring by 3:30pm. Adult leaders who filled out questionnaires will be wearing name tags so you can identify them. You may also ask your own scoutleaders some general trivia questions that are included. You can not ask questions like "Which one of these questions is about you?" Rather, each patrol member can ask one question in an attempt to link the right individual leader with the correct trivia question.
