YOUR MISSION: You are tasked with uncovering a hidden message left by the Founding Fathers, which holds the key to preserving the Republic and democracy. The message is scattered across the National Mall.  Players must find parts of the message at key landmarks to piece together to message. Follow the directions below to navigate yourself around the mall to discover the message.  You will have to perform a special task at each location to continue on.

Step 1: Find out which location you are going to first (ex. "location 1", "location 2"...)

Step 2: Get the first code from Dean or Tiff.

Step 3: Go to the modules and enter that code in the "Where do we go? What do we find?" for that location to gain access to the riddle guiding you to the location, and how to find the next part of the hidden message.

Step 4:

• Watch the riddle video, and work as a group to figure out where you need to go.
• Use the written description to know where to find the part of the message you need.

Step 5: Once you find the part of the message, use that as the code to access "What do we do?" for that location.

Step 6:

• Prepare the described task as a group.
• Follow the directions to pass off your task.
• Get the next location code from the leader of that location.

Step 7: Repeat Steps 3-6, entering the code into the next location's "Where do we go? What do we find?"  

Step 8:

• After you have found all the pieces to the message, and completed all the tasks, ask the leader for the FINAL VICTORY code.
• Use all the pieces you have collected to enter the secret message left for us by the Founding Fathers
