Maine is celebrating their 200th anniversary and a couple there has created a treasure hunt worth $20,000 — you know, to celebrate as well.
The couple spent 3 years casing the state for where to hide the cash.
The keys to this puzzle are 7 Dirigo Stones scattered throughout this beautiful Pine Tree State. Find the 7 stones, and you will find the treasure, as when their secret messages are combined, they reveal the treasure’s location. [from the treasure hunt website.]
The hunt involves riddles, puzzles, and clues on cards that you have to buy first. A dollar from each sale goes towards the Maine Cancer Foundation.
The couple behind the treasure hun hopes will get people out and exploring the state, which they love so much.
