America’s 250th Scavenger Hunt
What to Expect:
• You will find each of the 10 mystery locations by solving a riddle or using coordinates to locate the hidden rock.
• Once you locate the rock, open the rock to reveal the QR Code. Scan the code to find a short video, code word for the stop, and the riddle/coordinates for the next stop. DO NOT TAKE THE ROCK OR ANY OF IT’S COMPONENETS
• When you reach stop 10, you will be asked to complete a short questionnaire to submit your name in for a drawing that will take place in October 2026.
Best Practices:
• Respect private businesses: If a stop is located at a private business, please be respectful of other patrons.
• Be mindful of locations of reverence: Treat markers, memorials, and historic sites (treaty sites, Civil War landmarks, etc.) with respect. Speak softly, and don’t climb or touch artifacts.
• Safety first: Conduct the scavenger hunt only during daylight hours. Follow all traffic rules if walking or driving between stops.
• Record your code words carefully: Each stop has a code word—write them down so you can submit your answers at the end of the hunt.
• Share your experience: Tag your photos on social media with @williamsonhistorycenter to show off your journey!
• Questions along the way: Each webpage has a contact email for any questions or guidance.
