Phi Theta Kappa NerdNation 2014 Scavenger Hunt, sponsored by Pearson

Is your chapter up for the challenge?

Welcome to the NerdNation 2014 Scavenger Hunt brought to you by Pearson. How many Scavenger Hunt items can your Phi Theta Kappa chapter team capture in 17 hours? Each item is worth a point value. The three teams with the most points at the end of the hunt will each win a cash gift card and a trophy to share with their local Phi Theta Kappa chapters.

Grand Prize: Pizza Party for your chapter

First Place: $75 Visa Gift Card + trophy

Second Place: $50 Visa Gift Card + trophy

Third Place: $25 Visa Gift Card + trophy

All prizes will be awarded at 11:15 a.m. on Saturday, April 26 2014 at the Pearson booth in the Phi Theta Kappa NerdNation 2014 Marketplace.

IT’S EASY TO PLAY.

You may photograph scavenger hunt items in any order. However, you must designate one student on your team as the official NerdNation Scavenger Hunt photographer. This helps even out the playing field since some Phi Theta Kappa chapters have fewer members attending NerdNation than others.

WAIT… THERE’S A GRAND PRIZE DRAWING TOO?

Additionally, each team to score 100 points or more will qualify for a chance to win the grand prize -- a pizza party, valued at $100, for your Phi Theta Kappa chapter. The grand prize will be awarded according to a random drawing after the close of the hunt. A team representative must be present at the drawing to win. The grand prize drawing will be held at 11:15 a.m. on Saturday, April 26 2014 in the Marketplace.
