Nearly there!

Less than 15 hours to go until the 2008 Scavenger Hunt begins! The excitement is palpable.

If you don\’t want to miss out on the fun, there\’s still time to enter a team. Just send us a list of team members, a team name, and if possible, some sort of team photo/scribbled crayon drawing. Emails, as always, to cush@srcf.ucam.org.

For those who are taking part, the fun starts tomorrow (Wednesday) morning at 9am, outside Great St Mary\’s. Wear a hat. We will be.

And, if you can\’t make it to Great St Mary\’s, don\’t worry. The list will be online from 10am, and you can find out where and when to hand in items on the schedule.

Team Rofflecopter

Team Rofflecopter weren\’t able to get a photo, but they used their exceptional skills with Microsoft Paint to produce a team portrait.

The Cambridge Unnameables RETURN

Announcing the return of the Cambridge Unnameables! There may well be evidence that we\’re a little older, creakier, and slower (that, or we\’re taking our work/dissertations more seriously!), but WE\’RE BACK, MHUWAHAHA!!

True to form, we have no team picture yet. So here\’s one of them from last year, and we\’re super-pleased to see them back! – Chris

Team Members: Mary Hom, Aidan Brown couldn\’t make it so instead there is the mysterious \’Ulrich\’, Miranda Garfoot, Joe Garfoot and Blaise Thomson.

The Boom Squad

Are you holding out for a hero? Need them to be strong, fast and fresh from the fight? Never fear! The Boom Squad is here! On the hunt, this elite crime-fighting, scavenging team will be around Cambridge for 36 hours of supreme antics. Consisting of:

Akiko – special skills including super radar ears, always tuned into \”what\’s going down\”.
Korlin
– with the power of charm, she can attain anything.
Elaine
– with experience in assassinating, flag capturing and general mischief, Elaine is an asset to the team.
Emma – with the gift of the gab she can be counted on to get what you need.
Henri – the token male/Johnian, an essential part of any New Hall team is on hand to fulfill all the manly requirements.

THE BOOM SQUAD, they\’re gonna shake this mother\’ up.
