Are We There Yet?

Last night our church youth had a “Bigger and Better” scavenger hunt. Two teams were given a penny each and had to go door to door asking, “Do you have anything bigger and better than this?” Items continually get traded up. It’s always entertaining to see what groups bring back. Back in the 90’s when we were in campus ministry at Tennessee-Martin we had a group bring back a satellite dish- the big as six golf umbrellas sized dish. It helped that many of our students, largely from west Tennessee, all had pick-ups.

The winning team last night brought back a working, color, 27 inch TV (and an oar). The second place team (remember, only two teams total) brought back a lawnmower and a powered scooter- both items need a touch of repair but look great.

The good news is that these items left with the youth director and are not adding to my collection of junk in the garage.
