Starfish Search Scavenger Hunt

For the second consecutive year, the Starfish Search is a partnership between The Starfish Foundation and The Rogue Hunt!

In a week-long scavenger hunt designed to “spread goodness like glitter,” this team-based competition will foster creativity as participants create art, connect with their community, and attempt new and unusual skills.

In August 2023, more than 250 participants from 17 different countries grabbed their costumes and canvases and joined us for the inaugural Rogue Hunt. That endeavor raised more than $8,000 (USD) for The Starfish Foundation along the way—including $4,387 for the Joel Baque scholarship, which was awarded for the first time this year!

Who?

Each complete team will consist of four to six team members, including one captain.

It is not a problem if you do not have enough people for a complete team! You can register as an individual, and we can pair you with other competitors to form a team.

What?

At the start of the hunt, participants will receive a list of tasks to attempt. Do your best, and have fun. Make others smile.

Take photo and video evidence of your attempts. Upload your photos and videos to Google Drive before the scavenger hunt ends, so that the judges can see your work. (Yes, there will be judges, because there will be prizes!) You can earn bonus points for exceptionally well-done items, so try to impress the judges. Both quality and quantity are important if you aim to win.

Prizes will be awarded to the winners of each of the following four categories:

• Overall Winner: Awarded to the team that earns the most points.

• Altruist Prize: Awarded to the team that does the most “good” (fundraising, acts of kindness, etc.)

• Item-Specific Prizes: These will be identified when the list drops. Awarded to the individual(s) who best completes (a) specific item(s).

• Judges’ Choice Prize: The judges will award an additional prize at their own discretion to an individual or team that they feel deserves recognition

Why?

To complete chaotically fun tasks designed to brighten up our communities in very silly ways while raising awareness (and funds!) for The Starfish Foundation
