My Scavenger Hunt
by Jeanette Goetz

What do you know about Pennsylvania?

When I was growing up I remember telling my mother that I hated living in Pennsylvania because there was nothing to do here.  She then began to list the many things that you could do in Pennsylvania.  From that statement I created this scavenger hunt.  It is here to show others how many things you can do in PA.
