Photo Scavenger Hunt on October 28, 2023, at Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge in Sherman, Texas |

The Photography Club held a Photo Scavenger Hunt at Hagerman NWR. Participants could pick up a list of scavenger hunt categories in the Visitor Center on October 28th. With list in hand, photographers would go out on the refuge and take photos of things that matched the categories. Unfortunately, it was raining hard on 10/28. The event was extended that photographers could take photos on days other than 10/28. Using their imagination, they came up with some interesting photos. Take a look at the photos below of some photo club members who participated in the event. Photos below are from Brenda Edwards, Pam Rendall-Bass, Skip Stevens, Lisa Walsh, and Lisa Wilkins.
