Monday (Memorial Day), May 27, 2024 Liberty Quest IV, Liberty, IN
Urban Score-style course through the town of Liberty. Find as many control points as you can in any order. At each control point, you will find the answer to a history or trivia question to record on your score-card. You get points for each correct answer. But you will rapidly lose points if you go over the 2 hour time limit, so it is better to get back ON TIME even if you haven't found every point.
Check-in opens at 8:30 am. Mass start at 9:00. (If you can't make it by 9, you can start later, but still need to finish by 11 to avoid losing points).
