Scavenger Trash Hunt

Here is a good way to clean up your church and have fun. Divide into teams or pairs. You can almost always find these items around the church's parking lots or even in empty lots or parks near the church. Set a time limit so teams can win without all of the items. Make sure you use gloves and safety precautions.

How to play: All items must be trash, but cannot come from a trash can. You will have ten minutes. Come back as soon as you have all items or when the whistle blows. You can go to either end of the church property or empty lots. Wear rubber gloves and DO NOT PICK UP ANY BROKEN GLASS, DEAD ANIMALS, DIAPERS, or ANYTHING THAT MIGHT BE CONTAMINATED.
