If you are looking for an event that will entertain Kindergardeners all the way up to adults, then I would recommend trying a photo scavenger hunt. Today I will share with you one of the themed photo hunts I have put on with my troop and service unit.
Is a photo hunt not enough for your group? I know for my troop they wanted more so we added games, songs and craft to the event. Take the photo hunt ideas from this post, then navigate over to the Super Hero Party Ideas post to keep generating a amazing party for your troop.
How to Dress for the Occasion
You can have your girls come dressed as their favorite super hero. Then when they arrive have them make their very own super hero masks to wear during event or to take home with them. Superhero Masks Craft Kits.
After everyone was dressed and ready to go split the girls up into groups of 5 to 8 per team and try to keep them in the same age bracket. Give each group a list of pictures they have to take. Tell them to work as a group to take as many as they can in a set amount of time.
After the girls complete taking the pictures you could order pizza and play a few group games with the girls while a few of the adults go to develop the pictures. If you don’t plan to develop the pictures you could also show them on a TV for everyone to view.

Added Photo Challenges
If you are like me you may want to add even more challenges to the photo hunt. What I did was created a close up hunt to go with photos above. You will need to create your own, but below is example of what I did. You will give each team a copy of the hunt. The team has to find the picture location and take a picture as a group next to or on that location.
