We have several experienced scavenger hunters leading teams in the CRW scavenger hunt. All leaders are also conflict resolution professionals. These teams will compete against each other in a separate category from teams of new hunters. If you’d like to join an experienced leaders team, email us at pignpotato@gmail.com.
Wendy Lakusta
Wendy is a 3-time “Gisher” who has demonstrated particular expertise in persuasive cold calling! Amongst other feats, she convinced a motorcycle gang member to pose on his bike wearing a jacket made out of fruit leather (which she made!). Here, Wendy is front and centre in her interpretation of “Groucho-Marx-ing” a fruit. Wendy is also an incredibly experienced mediator, mediation mentor, and trainer.
Emily Martin (Team WINWIN)
Emily joined Team Brown (Trench) Coats this summer as our international star – she lives in Seattle where she works as a Labor mediator and arbitrator. Emily brought us a high level of photographic expertise that greatly enhanced the quality of our submissions! Check out a few of our favourite images she captured!
Amanda Semenoff
Amanda contributed many fabulous images to Team Brown (Trench) Coats this summer, including this lovely image of “chickens coming home to Proust”. She’s a creative problem-solver: if there’s a way to accomplish a task, she’ll find it! You’ll also hear Amanda podcasting at Overthinking Conflict.
Dan Williams
Dan will be leading a team from his home in Kamloops, BC. That’s where he also created some memorable scavenger hunt items including finding a goat and a boat for a Green Eggs and Ham tribute. We are particularly fond of this photo of Dan, though: in his first GISHWHES, Dan travelled to Vulcan, AB for a tribute to Leonard Nimoy! Dan will always go that extra mile… in scavenger hunting and in his mediation practice.
