The History of the Scavenger Hunt
Scavenger Hunts have been around for a very long time...
Since the days of treasure hunters and pirates there has always been a drive to find something hidden and unlock mysteries. We may all remember the scavenger hunts of our youth... Find a sock, Get a roll of TP or a Needle and Thread from the neighbors. Fast forward to the modern age of Pokemon Go and you have a digital version of a similar concept.
Who gets credit for the Scavenger Hunt?
Credit for the Scavenger Hunt truly belongs to Jazz Age gossip columnist Elsa Maxwell. In 1927 she hosted a party in Paris which asked guests to find certain items during the evening. Some of those items included music-hall star Mistinguett’s shoe, a black swan from the Bois de Boulogne, the red pom pom on a French seaman’s hat. Before it was over, Mistinguett had to entertain barefoot at the Casino de Paris, a ferocious swan sent two people to the hospital, and interior decorator Elsie de Wolfe, wife of British diplomat Sir Charles Mendl, was accused of theft by the French Navy.
