Closer together after GEO16 Treasure Hunt


TA Mario, Treasure Hunt TA in charge poses besides his team

Team India won 4th place at the recently concluded GEO 16 Treasure Hunt. At first, we planned to separate the team members so we can search for the stations quickly. Other teams didn’t separate so we thought our strategy was so nice and perfect, but it didn’t turn out to be as great as we thought. We changed our strategy and started to look for the stations together. We didn’t quite understand what the first clue meant and even walked past our first station and we found ourselves lost. Suddenly, we realized that we passed the station. We got there too late. So for the other stations we did it really fast, except IH 267, the Scavenger Hunt station. In that station, we were tasked to pick a color and look for words with that color. Afterwards, we have to arrange them in the proper order. We chose khaki colored words but we weren’t able to find them. After thirty minutes, we changed to another color set of words and we were able to finish the mission in five minutes! After we finished doing the missions on all of the stations we went back to the gym and we were the 5th team to arrive but since another team was still solving their equation and we solved ours in just 30 seconds we were able to get 4th place instead. The Treasure Hunt activity made us very tired, but all our team members enjoyed it. We had a lot of fun and we did all stations with great teamwork. Thanks to The Treasure Hunt, our team members got closer to each other.

Professor Greg and Team India happy and satisfied after completing all the Treasure Hunt missions ^^
