applies. In addition, each member will receive 1(one) free Class of

The rules
Deadline: December 19th, 2010. (Photos and video must be turned
in BY that time and in my possession).
NOTE: DHSeminars are
popular and it's best to register early for them yourself. The
winners of this contest will be notified and reimbursed their full
or half admission price if they have already paid for an admission!
Otherwise they will receive a credit equivalent to their winning
amount. If you choose to not register, we can not guarantee
there will be space at the seminar location of your choice, that's
why we suggest you pre-register for them.
A) All photographs must be submitted to Andy Codding, RDH by either
email or regular mail.
If emailing pictures please email those to
andy@dentaltease.com if
sending them please mail to:
AndyFutureRDH Scavenger Hunt
4516 Columbus Circle
Acworth, GA 30101
Please ensure you have a valid email address as confirmations
will be sent out. If after submitting your photographs and you don't
receive a confirmation within 3 business days, please email
andy@dentaltease.com to
verify if I've received them.
B) All students must be in their senior year of hygiene school and
eligible to take the next scheduled national board exam. This is for
US students only.
2010 NEW CHANGE!
C) Teams can have no more than 7 students. All photographs and
videos must have ALL members of your team in the photo or video
minus 1 student to allow for a photographer/videographer. This means
if your team has 3 students you must have at least 2 in the photo.
If your team has 6 students, at least 5 need to be in all photos. 7
students means at least 6 students need to be in the photo, etc.
The prizes will stay the same. There will still be only 2 free
admissions awarded for the winner and two half price admissions for
the 2nd place team. If your team has more than 2 students, I
recommend choosing 2 students to get the free admission and then
splitting the cost of the seminar among everyone else. So for
instance the seminar costs $400 a student. A team of 5 would mean
the total for all 5 people would cost $2000. You win and get 2 free
so the cost would be $1200. Split the $1200 5 ways and each person
would pay $240. That's just what I recommend. You would only have to
do that if you won, though and then you decide as a team what to do
with the two free admissions.
D) All pictures must also have a clear legible sign or paper
being held up in the photo saying “AndyFutureRDH.com,” “We love
AndyFutureRDH.com”, etc…. Be creative. (hint..such as T-shirts, face
paint, tattoos, etc can also be made) No exceptions will be made to
having the web site name and or "AndyRDH" in EACH picture. Extra
points for creative signs are awarded at the end of the contest (up
to 25 pts)
E) Scoring - Points awarded for each category will
be made by Andy Codding, RDH and his web site consultants which
consist of various dental hygienists and faculty throughout the
united states. In addition, some past scavenger hunt winners
will also be judges. In the event there is a tie for any
of the prizes, Andy will not help determine the winner. In all
fairness he will just ensure the website consultants follow a point
system to determine who is in what final place.
In the event of a tie, there will be between 10-15 judges made of
Andy's website consultants. Each judge will take those teams tied
(categorized by what place they are tied for) first and rank them
based on the teams open missions and overall creativity on other
missions, including signs. Then points will be awarded as follows.
First Place - 5 points
Second Place - 4 points
Third Place - 3 points
Fourth Place - 2 points
Fifth Place - 1 point
Be original, risky, creative and have fun!
F) Completing missions is at the discretion of the group members.
Not all missions must be completed, but naturally the more you
complete the higher your chances of winning.
G) By entering the contest all team members agree to the rules
posted here and for photographs to become property of
AndyFutureRDH.com as well as posted on web site for other competing
teams to track their opponents. Once a photograph is submitted and
entered - you can not resubmit another photograph to replace it once
it has been posted. "Posted" means actually on the web site. If a
photo was submitted and it is not yet on the site, then a new one
can be turned in to replace it. Only 1-3 photos of each mission will
be allowed (unless otherwise instructed such as the "floss em"
mission).
