Dear Diplomats of Discovery,

Ten top secret Mystery Classes are hiding around the globe, and it's up to you to uncover their locations!

Your first step begins Monday, January 29th. On that day, record your town's sunrise and sunset times. (Check your local newspaper or use the online look-up.) Record them on your Mystery Class Datasheet.

Just four days later, on Friday, February 2nd, we will post the first sunrise/sunset data for all ten secret Mystery Classes. Be sure to record their sunrise/sunset data on your Mystery Class Datasheets too.

In the weeks that follow, continue to record the sunrise/sunset data for your location and the secret Mystery Classes, and be sure to graph the changing photoperiod. The mission is challenging, but the rewards are huge.

Don't forget your passports.

Bon voyage!

Sincerely, Your Friends at Journey North

Reminder:
Mystery Class begins Monday. We challenge you to find ten Mystery Class sites using sunrise and sunset clues!
