February Vacation Week 2012     
  

February 19-27
What has Ruff Ruffman gotten himself into now? Join other FETCHers as you get the clues and  solve the brand new mystery of The Case of the Roaming Gnome. Study the details of the case, get a list of sneaky suspects, then off you go to collect clues, gather data and narrow down the field of culprits. You’ll be able to try some hands-on experiments in the FETCH!™ Lab like investigating the tracks left by the perpetrator, compare soil samples and analyze the handwriting on the ransom note. You'll need to dig really deep into your bag of tricks to solve this canine caper!
