Waiting for the Big Reveal: What You're Saying

Hang on gumshoes! Just one more week to go.

Everyone's getting really excited as the big reveal approaches -- soon there will be no more secrets!

Just look at some of the messages we received from searching students:

From the Panthers in
Alberton, MT:

"The mystery classes were well hidden!"

"I think this is one of the best science classes ever! Mystery Class #5 was hard!"

"This was our first time doing this and it was really cool!"

"You guys rock!"

--Ms. Froehlich's class, Alberton Elementary

 From Kidane's Crew in
Andover, New Hampshire:

"I can hear my heart beating."

"This was very intense."

"Can't wait to find out."

--Mrs. Kidane's class, Andover Elementary/Middle School

Astronomical Acknowledgments
For many years now our astronomy expert, Rod Nerdahl, has carefully researched and provided us with standard sunrise/sunset and latitude/longitude data. Special thanks to Rod for keeping us "on time" and "in line", and also for his insights about egg balancing on the equinox. "Ad astra" (to the stars)  Rod! 
Top Secret Thanks

Thank you secret mystery sites! We know you worked very hard creating the clues, and everyone around the world really appreciates all that you've done this season!

In one short week, everyone will finally know where you are.


Advice from Teachers: Time to Celebrate!


In these last eleven weeks, everyone has worked very hard and learned so much.

So each year when the secret locations are disclosed, teacher Barb DeSantis from New Jersey throws a party that's fun and quite revealing for her students.

Drop in and plan your own festivities! >>
