A tradition since 1987, the University of Chicago Scavenger Hunt, fondly known as “Scav,” is a four-day extravaganza held in May, when teams compete in a wildly creative quest to find, design, perform, build, or otherwise execute items from a designated list. Each year, Scav includes an Olympics, a road trip, and other favorites executed by teams and scrutinized by judges. But this year held a Scav first—on Friday night, Rockefeller Chapel played host to the first Scav wedding. UChicago alums Christian Kammerer, AB’03, SM’06, PhD’09, a longtime Scav judge, and Emily Pelka, AB’09, exchanged vows (for real) in a wedding ceremony that somehow managed to blend the Muppets, Iron Butterfly, and a Nativity re-enactment, and finish with the happy couple crowd surfing their way out of the chapel.
