South Shore Quests
In 2004, South Shore Quests was adopted by the Weir River Watershed Association. It was formed in 1998 to encourage exploration of the outdoors through the use of clue- directed walks through local public lands and parks. For a given Quest, participants use the map and directions found in the Quest booklet to follow hidden clues to a treasure box. Once the box is found, participants stamp the back page of the Quest booklet (as proof of accomplishment), and write or stamp in the guest book to record having finished the Quest. After you have successfully completed 10 Quests, you are eligible to receive a South Shore Quests Patch. Don't forget to try the Weir River Estuary Center Quest!

The Questing season is from April 15th to November 15th and there are a few winter quests. Books cost $6. For more information visit their website.
