Frequently Asked Questions about these hunts.
I do not provide answer keys.
| "Learning .. is so valuable .. that it is therefore sacred. A Life filled with Learning is the greatest gift of all. A Life so lived is celebrated, the celebration being more like an Irish wake than like the mournful chant of loss so many tone. It is a Celebration of a Life Well Lived…and there are songs to be sung that honor the beauty of such a life, reminding us all of our purpose…and our potential." Paula Underwood, The Walking People |
