ABSTRACT:
A swimming pool search and retrieval game comprising a toy treasure chest and toy treasure pieces is provided. The chest is made from ornately styled waterproof plastic in the form of a sunken treasure chest. The chest has a lid, a lock, a key, and a compartment which contains sand to keep the chest weighted down while it is submerged. The chest contains an assortment of nonbuoyant toy treasure pieces that are also made from ornately styled waterproof plastic. The treasure pieces include jewelry, coins and trinkets. The treasure pieces are placed inside the treasure chest and the treasure chest is sunk to the bottom of a swimming pool. A player swims to the sunken chest and retrieves a treasure piece. The player returns to the surface of the pool with the retrieved item and repeats the sequence until all of the treasure pieces and the treasure chest are retrieved.
