RULES FOR THE OCTOBER TREASURE HUNT
DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS HUNT, I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THE PROXY ITEM IS NOT HIDDEN IN A CEMETERY, GRAVEYARD, BURIAL GROUND OR CHURCH YARD.
THERE IS NO DIGGING. THE PROXY ITEM IS NOT BURIED.
This is a FREE HUNT.
Anyone can participate.
Donations are being accepted to help with the cost of art supplies, prizes, and shipping of the prizes. You can send donations to PayPal at TheArtofHiddenMessages@gmail.com
Your donations are appreciated! The money affords me to keep making treasure hunts and giving prizes along with them.
This hunt is somewhat similar to “The Secret”, however, I am using a proxy item, and only one illustration and only one poem. A proxy item is hidden in place of a treasure somewhere in the continental United States. There is an illustration that contains clues to the location of the proxy item, and there is a poem that also contains clues to the location of the proxy item. You will use these together to determine where the proxy item is located. If you are following the clues correctly, you will know exactly where the item is, down to a small, searchable area, approximately 2 inches by 2 inches. The proxy item must be retrieved to win.
The proxy item will be easily identified, as it matches the theme of this hunt. When the proxy item is found, the winner must take a photo of it, and send it to TheArtofHiddenMessages@gmail.com with the heading, “Proxy Item Found”. There can be only one winner, the person who has the proxy item in their possession. If you are working as a team, it is up to the players to determine how to divide the prize. The prize will be sent to the person who sends in the photo of the proxy item with their address.
There is no need to go into cemeteries, graveyards, church yards, or in any dangerous areas. This is in a public place and is easily accessible. Let me say that again, IT IS EASILY ACCESSIBLE. DO NOT GO SEARCHING FOR THE PROXY ITEM IN A GRAVEYARD, CEMETERY, OR CHURCH YARD. DO NOT DIG.
There is enough information in the poem and illustration to solve for the location, but you will need to do some research.
I will post updates on the facebook site, The Art of Hidden Messages, and on the Mysterious Writings Forum.
The prize, like with “The Secret” is a gem. The gem for this hunt is a 18 carat Rose Quartz from Africa . Also included will be the original painting used for this hunt. It is a watercolor, and measures 11.75 inches in height by 9.25 inches in width. This is NOT a print. You will receive the original painting. The prize items will be mailed to the winner, at my expense, and tracking will be provided.
If you figure out the location, but have no intention of retrieving the proxy item, please don’t spoil the fun for those who are still playing. Don’t post the answer.
Also, I will not confirm the location for you prior to you making the trip to the site, so don’t ask.
Again, I will end by saying one more time, this is not in a cemetery, a graveyard, a burial ground, or a church yard. You do not have to dig to retrieve this proxy item.
Thanks for playing, have fun, and good luck!
Prize: Gemstone below, Original Artwork, and Unique Painted Proxy!
