ECO--SAVENGER HUNT--The Great Diversity Race!!!!

Each *find* must be documented by video.  The camera is rotated from team member to team member after each find--something like a batting order.  Be sure to hold the camera steady and focus for about 5 secs. Keep a written list of your *finds* as well in the order you film them.  Any interpretive notes may be included with your written list.
