Northland Guide's WWW Scavenger Hunt

With thanks to Barbara Van Dyke and the wonderful scavenger hunts on her
Scavenger Hunts Page


This scavenger hunt was written by Anne E. for a computer session at GLOW - a Guide Leaders conference in Upper Hutt, New Zealand, 23-26 April 1997. We used it as a tool to give people a bit of hands on experience with the WWW and to introduce them to some of the many wonderful Guide and Girl Scout resources on the net.
