7. Create your own: The more specific
the information and the more
obscure and difficult to obtain it, the
better. Be creative and try to make
the list educational as well as fun.

8. Additional Guidelines
1. Have an adult in each vehicle
(besides the driver) to verify each
spotting of an item.
2. Only the first person to spot a
particular item can get credit for
it. If there are more than one of
an item, the first person to spot
each instance gets credit.

9. 3. You can limit the hunt to street
signs or combine it with items and
information. Information might be
the highway numbers, miles to a
particular destination or other
information found along the way.
4. At the final destination, tally the
results and award the youth with
the keenest eyesight!

10. Bible Studies based on the book of Jonah
Only. This youth camp curriculum was
designed to teach the basic truths
of obedience in addition to evangelism in the
context of a Biblical character. The advantage
of going through a book and looking at one
man's story is that we see not only the
teaching but the example. It becomes much
more real!

“Who Do You Say that I AM?”

-> Tell me about “Who Do You Say that I AM?”
Jesus asked the disciples, "Who do others
say that I am?" It was easy to answer
because it required no conviction, no
commitment, and no risk. But then he
follows that question with another, "Who
do YOU say that I am?"
