1/3 Per @mishacollins: It's true. This year will likely be the last year of #gishwhes as we know it. He's hinted at a different iteration…

As you’ll see in the tweets, you’ll see “This year will likely be the last year of GISHWHES as we know it” – so we’re holding out hope that Misha will bring it back in some sort of capacity.
If you’ve never heard of GISHWHES before, here’s a little background information:
GISHWHES is a 7-time Guinness World Record breaking scavenger hunt hosted by Supernatural actor and Random Acts co-founder Misha Collins. You can compete from anywhere in the world.
The items on the list range, but could be anything from “perform a sock puppet show at a children’s hospital” to “get the word “gishwhes” written on something in space.”
At the end of the hunt, a winning team is chosen to join Misha on a trip! Previous years Misha has taken the winning team to Rome, Scotland, British Columbia, Iceland and more. This year’s hunt, the winning team will join Misha in Hawaii!
G.I.S.H.W.H.E.S. (The Greatest International Scavenger Hunt the World Has Ever Seen) takes place August 5th to 12th.
There’s still two weeks to register!

Please don’t take someone else’s spot that really needs it if you don’t. If you cant afford $21.08 you may apply for a Gisholarship. Gisholarships will be voluntarily gifted by other Gishwhes participants granting you free registration. Gishwhes will match EVERY Gisholarship gifted. As you are dependent on the generosity of others, there is no guarantee you will receive a Gisholarship. We hope to award lots of Gisholarships, but you may not be notified that you have received a Gisholarship until after registration has closed as we need to review all applications and match them with Grantors.
