Forest Preserve to Hold Mystery Photo Contests in September

You visit the forest preserves, you enjoy the forest preserves, but how well do you remember your favorite forest preserve locations?

The Forest Preserve District of Will County is about to find out. A new Mystery 360 contest will test your ability to recognize specific locations within the District. Every Wednesday in September at approximately 8:45 p.m., the District will post a 360-degree photo to its Facebook page, facebook.com/WillCoForests. Each photo will be accompanied by a question.

Scrutinize the photo, and once you think you know the answer to the question, post your guess in the comment section under the photo. In some cases, you’ll be asked to identify a specific trail or preserve. Other times, the correct answer might be the name of a forest preserve waterway. Mystery 360 responses must clearly answer the question posed.

Be the first to ID the photo correctly to win a prize. Winners will receive their choice of a USB flash drive, a glass photo frame or a power bank for charging mobile devices. Participants must be 18 years old or older. Only one guess per person will be allowed each week. For a complete set of Mystery 360 contest rules, visit ReconnectWithNature.org.
