The Hunt Gala

Forget all that you once knew about scavenger hunts and prepare for the most packed weekend of your Middlebury experience.

The Hunt is a two-day competition during winter term for students to try their hands at taking risks, pushing their comfort zones, and completing creative, wild tasks compiled by their all-powerful Hunt Masters.

The challenges call on historical, theoretical, mathematical, and practical knowledge; creative thinking; strong organizational skills; boundless energy and enthusiasm; and an appreciation of the absurd.
