Review of the treasure hunt party last Saturday

Dear Nikki,

I wanted to give you a review of our party last Saturday. It was a real hit, all the boys had a great time. We had 8 boys ages 11 and 12 over for our twin?s 11th birthday party. We gave instruction to bring their bikes to the party as they were to search within our housing development for clues, the map, and treasure. The invitations were hand delivered on brown paper sacks to look like treasure maps.

We included many of your games; Pea and straw, toilet paper wrap, word puzzle, rope walk, we added a name the landmark game with pictures of US national landmarks as an educational station.

Our map was hidden by our community pool under a bench in a poster tube. It led them to an undeveloped lot that had 3 piles of dirt. There was an actual X taped onto one of the piles of dirt. We spray painted a Styrofoam cooler black and glued a latch for the combination lock to hold.

The boy?s party favors were in the treasure chest which included a flashlight, movie gift card and some candy!

My wife and I did the whole thing with each of us taking one team (4 boys).

I?ve attached a link where you can view the photos we took.

Thanks again for the great kit as it made the process very easy. We had a fun time in planning the whole event. The combination twist is a very clever thing!

Best regards,
