NYC Treasure Hunt
The journey is the reward, but the treasure is the prize!
Classrooms are an amazing part of the learning journey for any individual. They offer safe spaces for a wide range of simulations and theoretical exploration. The outside world provides the compliment. An opportunity to practice adapting to the unpredictability of our ever-changing surroundings. Real-world dynamic problem solving and strategy implementation will be essential to completing the stages of this challenge!
Did the last high constable of NYC discover one of the many clues left behind by the Pirate of Pearl Street? Private notes that have recently been uncovered indicate that there's a treasure yet to be discovered.
