A technology-inspired scavenger hunt has been embraced by Kelowna Rotarians as a new fund-raising initiative.

Called The Rotary FoxHunt, the event offers a 90-minute challenge for participating teams to work against the clock in resolving the most game challenges, submitted with a photo or video evidence via smartphones to the game administrator.

Ketler said the variety of challenges range from solving riddles to carrying out tasks confirmed as completed by video or photo.

The fund-raising aspect comes from the registration fee for participants, $60/person, with $40 from each registration fee split between directly supporting the JoeAnna香蕉视频直播檚 supportive housing project for family members of out-of-town patients at Kelowna General Hospital and the Hands In Service volunteer and community service organization.

A charitable tax receipt will be provided to all registrants for the $40 portion.
