For a bit of healthy competition between the provinces, and to encourage conference delegates to get out and see some of Thunder Bay’s sights, you are welcomed to participate in the AAO/AMA Photo Scavenger Hunt! The goal is to take photographs of as many of the locations and activities listed below. The photo scavenger hunt will run the length of the conference! The lucky province will be announced at Friday’s luncheon.
Each province will compete as a team. Designated team members will submit photos of each completed task. If both provinces complete the list (or if neither do..!), then the province with the most points wins.
Send in your photos by tweeting them with the conference hashtag #aaoama16
