Quest Info
Good day Quester!
We welcome you to the Shad Landing Area of Pocomoke River State Park!
We hope to find you well and by reading this introduction, we believe we will take only roughly about
EiGhT MiNuTeS of your time. With the documents you have printed, which usually take between
FiVe SeCoNdS and FiFtY-OnE SeCoNdS depending on the speed of your printer, you have all you will need to start your quest! You are welcome to start at any of the locations mentioned within the downloaded packet! If you need help finding these locations, you can use your map or even a GPS!
We will provide the GPS coordinate for each of the main questing locations! To read coordinates it comes in four sections: the first section is the number of degrees, the second section is a number called minutes, the third section is a number is called seconds, and the final section describes the longitude and latitude and is represented by the directions North, South, East, and West. By visiting and completing tasks at each location, you will gain clues to the final stamp and be able to stamp your flower of knowledge! When finished, feel free to decorate your flower and have it hung in the Park Store for the summer!
Could you complete this quest in
TwEnTy-SiX MiNuTeS?

But whether it is
SeVeNtY-FiVe DeGrEeS Fahrenheit or
ThIrTy EiGhT DeGrEeS Celsius your journey will take you all around Shad Landing!
And after you finish with our quest here, we highly encourage you to seek out other quests across the state!

So have fun, be safe, and happy questing!
