SUMMARY:National Scavenger Hunt Day
DESCRIPTION:National Scavenger Hunt Day on May 24th each year sends us off to find random items all in the name of good fun. \n#ScavengerHuntDay\nAmerican gossip columnist\, author\, songwriter\, and professional hostess Elsa Maxwell (May 24\, 1883 – November 1\, 1963) is credited with the introduction of the scavenger hunt for use as a party game in the modern era. \nThe game challenges teams to scavenge for a list of odd items. As part of the rules\, participants are not allowed to buy the objects. Depending on where the hunt takes place\, players may have to beg\, barter\, or even work for them\, too. Some scavenger hunts add difficulty to the game by adding riddles describing each item. The team with the most items\, or the first to complete the list\, wins. \nHOW TO OBSERVE SCAVENGER HUNT DAY\nScavenger hunts have become popular at weekend get-togethers\, parties\, family gatherings\, and holidays. Even co-workers put together scavenger hunts to keep the workday interesting. Practice your riddle-making and create a scavenger hunt for family and friends. \nIf you’re looking for a scavenger hunt\, download and print the Game Piece Scavenger Hunt we created. It can be played traditionally or at home. You don’t even have to have the game pieces to play the game. Print pictures of the required pieces. Add extra clues to the riddles to guide players to where the images will be found. \nUse #ScavengerHuntDay to post on social media. \nSource Link

Here are a few tips to keep in mind. \n\nPlan ahead. Even a spur of the moment trip requires planning.\n\nTwo in five\, or 42 percent of road trippers find travel apps very helpful when planning their trip. Mapping out your stops ahead of time can be a great way to save both time and money.\nThe Pilot Flying J’s   myRewards PlusTM app allows travelers to tailor their trip routes. In addition\, the app helps travelers save on the go by showcasing specific amenities\, fuel prices and more.\n\n\nVehicle maintenance is vital to any successful road trip. Beyond the routine maintenance\, such as oil changes and sound tires\, other simple checks will keep you on the road.\n\nCheck your wipers and wiper fluid.\nMake sure your spare tire and jack are in place.\nEnsure all lights and signals are working.\nLook at the condition of your brake pads.\nVerify your car registration is current or not about to expire.\n\n\nPlot your course. Consider construction\, fuel and snack stops\, shopping\, and the interests of the other travelers.\n\nPrioritize your road trip for convenience and efficiency. About 58 percent of travelers want to stop at all-in-one rest stops that offer gas\, food\, drinks\, coffee\, bathrooms\, and more.\nGrab your “road trip essential” snacks. These can include chips and salty foods\, freshly made or grab-and-go foods\, and fast food options.\n\n\n\nHow do you travel?\nThere are two kinds of people who take road trips. \n\nThe tourist takes their time getting there and taking the scenic routes.\nThe pilot enjoys seeing the country from the car\, sets a course\, and frowns upon unscheduled stops or side trips. If you’re going together\, you might want to discuss a compromise before hitting the road!\n\nNo matter the destination\, road trips include an element of expectation and rarely disappoint. The best road trips bring us closer to people over a stick of beef jerky and car karaoke. They connect us to places through memories\, a postcard\, and the kindness of strangers. \nHITTING THE ROAD\nIt is that time of year where families and friends prepare for National Road Trip Day by hitting the road and discovering exciting new destinations.
