Scavenger Hunt 09

And the winners were:  Allen A in first place. Rick Thynes
in 2nd and the terrific trio(Andy, Angel, & Donald in 3rd)
Great job everybody and thanks for participating.
awards were $75.00 cape fox gift cert. a 50.00 visa card
and a 25.00 wind and water gift cert.  ya'll come back
next year!  Promise to get some pics from the contest 
on the photo gallery soon.   
The Hunt is On!  It's official.  Club members voted to start a week early on memorial day weekend.  
General rules: below is a list with point values for each critter.
(Thank you Rick and Allen for putting this years list together)
Take a picture or verify with a regular buddy on a list when & where you saw the creature.   Most life forms were taken from  whelks to whales, marine life of pacific northwest, or one of the sea challenger books.  The common names have been used, they can vary from one book to another.  You may also look on the clubs critter page for website links which have ID info.     
Assemble pictures(slideshow) or list prior to the August Dive club meeting, when the points will be tallied!  Don't be shy, it is the hunt and sighting not a perfect picture that counts here. 
The top three winners(we're all winners if we dive) will be 
awarded a cool prize from the club!   

Lou looked up all the items on the list!  Here is a link
with pictures.  kpunet.net/~louh/scav.pdf    it may take a 
moment to load, 7.98 MB .  This is a great resource 
for anyone who cannot figure out what they are looking for.
Great job Lou,  Thanks so much !
