A&M-Texarkana to hold city-wide scavenger hunt for prospective stude
The Texas A&M University-Texarkana Office of Admissions will be holding a city-wide scavenger hunt for local high school juniors and seniors from March 8th through March 13th. Using the Goose-Chase app, teams of 1-2 students (juniors and/or seniors) from local high schools will receive two clues per day about two top-secret locations in Texarkana. Between the hours of 4 p.m. – 6 p.m. each week day (1 p.m. - 3 p.m. Saturday) teams must solve the clues to find the secret locations and then must complete a task at each site. Teams who arrive at the checkpoints each day and complete the tasks the best will win points. On March 13th, the team with the most points will win The Eagle Hunt first-place prize.
