Rules:
1. Time limit: I think we gave ourselves between 30 and 45 minutes to find as many as we could.
2. Area boundaries: We did not give ourselves any road boundaries (like "only in the city limits"), but I would recommend that for a larger community.
3. Items per house: More than one item on the list could be checked off at the same house. It would be more challenging if a "one house, one item" rule were used.
4. Photos: In a team competition, must have photo proof of each item checked.
Our list is below. Feel free to add comments for things you think should be included! Happy hunting!!
