Each week in October, we will be hiding a popular adult book around Washington County and sharing clues here and on social media. If you find the book, you get to keep it! The prize books are:
How it works:
- On Mondays: A book will be hidden somewhere in Washington County. All books will be hidden outdoors. You will not need to enter any buildings or businesses to find them.
- On Tuesdays: We will share the first clue on social media and this page.
- On Thursdays: We will share a second clue if the book hasn't been found.
- If you find a book, let us know by tagging us on social media!
