title: Christmas Scavenger Hunt
author: Holmes, Sheila
description: On the planning committee for the church Singles Sunday School class, Tegan loved the idea of having a combination Christmas scavenger hunt (complete with prizes for the winning team) and a late night dinner. Even making the list for the scavenger items was fun, filled with laughter to the point of tears. However, just two items short of finishing the list, no one seemed to be able to agree on anything. After considering just leaving the list at eighteen items, every committee member present balked at the seemingly incomplete number of items. Jamie, however, in keeping with her extroverted and adventurous nature, jumped in with two ideas to complete the list of twenty:19. Hug someone who is at least six inches taller than yourself.20. Give a kiss to a stranger. Out of the nine members present on the committee, Tegan was the only one who voted negatively on those two items. When she was outnumbered by a tired lot of eight who voted YES, mainly because they were exhausted and needed to get home and get the sleep they needed for work the next day, Tegan simply decided that she would hug her brother who was seven inches taller to fulfill number 19, and wouldn't complete number 20 at all. No big deal! What would happen if she didn't participate in numbers 19 and 20 of the scavenger hunt? What would happen if she DID?
