BERLIN — A popular long-standing tradition at Berlin Middle High School pairs a scavenger hunt of sorts with Valentine’s Day, where students seek out their own hearts for the opportunity to win a variety of prizes.

BMHS Family Consumer Science teacher Elaine Connary said the event, entitled “Hunting for Hearts” is a tradition at the school dating back over 20 years. She said the idea came from a conference where another Family, Career and Community Leaders of America chapter was doing it and the local BMHS FCCLA chapter adopted the approach as its own.
