Treasure Hunt WINNERS

Congratulations to the 15 Airport Authority employees who emerged victorious in the first-ever Goodwill Ambassablog TREASURE HUNT yesterday. Seven of them are pictured here, holding their Southwest Boarding School diplomas and Starbucks gift cards. From left: Kelly, Clarke, Suzie, Kendy, Amy, Dan and Mukundhan.

The Treasure Hunt went live at 3:00 p.m. PST yesterday, and the first correct response came in a mere ten minutes later. The 15th correct response came in at 3:27 p.m. That's some speedy navigation of the Goodwill Ambassablog! Here's what the 'treasure' -- a Southwest Boarding School Diploma -- looks like.

NOTE: It turns out a few Airport Authority employees got a dreaded message from the Southwest Boarding School when trying to complete the Treasure Hunt. Something about not having the proper 'school supplies' to get their diploma. In most cases, this was due to having a computer without the proper version of Adobe Flash installed. This prevented them from completing the Treasure Hunt. Our sympathies go out to them. The silver lining? Now those employees will be getting Flash installed on their computers! (They just need to talk to Information Technology.)
