Thursday’s Clue:
A QUARTER MILLENNIUM HAS PASSED SINCE INDEPENDENCE CAME OUR WAY,
YET THE SPIRIT OF THOSE EARLY YEARS STILL LIVES IN US TODAY.

Wednesday’s Clue:
THINK OF FREEDOM, THINK OF CHOICE, AND PEOPLE FINDING THEIR VOICE.
THINK OF THOSE WHO BUILT THEIR HOMES AND MADE THEIR OWN GREAT CHOICE.
PIERZ HAS STORIES OF ITS OWN, WITH HISTORY ALL AROUND,
BUT THE TREASURE ISN'T HIDING VERY HIGH OFF THE GROUND.

Tuesday’s Clue:
FROM THIRTEEN TO FIFTY, OUR NATION GREW FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA,
EACH STATE BECAME A PIECE OF WHAT THIS COUNTRY CAME TO BE.

TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AROUND; YOU MAY NEED DIFFERENT EYES.

Monday’s Clue:
RED, WHITE, AND BLUE MAY POINT THE WAY, BUT DON'T EXPECT THEM HERE,
THE FOUNDERS KNEW THAT EVERY QUEST REQUIRES A LITTLE CARE.
OUR NATION'S STORY HOLDS MANY PATHS, SO DON'T BE QUICK TO CHOOSE,
A CLUE MAY POINT YOU SOMEWHERE, BUT WHICH PATH WILL YOU USE?

Sunday’s Clue:
TWO HUNDRED FIFTY YEARS AGO, A DARING DREAM BEGAN TO GROW,
THIRTEEN COLONIES TOOK THEIR STAND AND MADE THEIR VOICES KNOWN.
THE JOURNEY STARTS MUCH CLOSER THAN THE HISTORY BOOKS MAY SAY,
BUT FINDING WHERE TO BEGIN WILL BE THE FIRST STEP OF YOUR WAY.
