Start planning freeThe decision that makes class reunion campus scavenger hunt easier
Organizing a daytime campus scavenger hunt tied to old school spots. Start with a written decision, an owner, and a date for the next checkpoint. That turns a vague committee conversation into a plan people can follow and lets you explain the why to every guest.
- Get permission from the current school to access campus on your date.
- Write clues pointing to nostalgic spots like the gym, lockers, and quad.
- Group people into small teams and set a clear time and finish point.
What experienced organizers avoid
Most reunion stress comes from making promises before the constraints are clear. Protect the guest experience by surfacing the tradeoffs early, documenting the decision, and giving people one reliable place to find the latest answer.
- Do not enter campus without checking current access rules and permission.
- Do not plan a route so long or spread out that people give up.
- Do not schedule it in a way that clashes with the main evening event.
Turn the decision into a shared plan
Use one shared source of truth for the people, money, timing, and messages behind this decision. The organizer should not be the only person who knows what was agreed or what happens next.
- Assign one owner and one backup for the next action.
- Put the deadline and the decision in the guest-facing update.
- Review the result after the reunion so next time starts smarter.
