This objective asks you to visit historical markers. What counts as a historical marker? Any plaque that marks a historical event or location is a historical marker. The key is that unlike museums plaques, historical markers reside at the location where the history took place. You've probably seen signs while driving from point a to b that instruct you to pull to the side of the road for a short lesson in history. This objective asks you to do just that! For a list of historical markers, check out The Historical Marker Database.
Objective:
Check out and read up to three historical markers.

If posting to Instagram or Twitter, use the tags #questscouts and #history. (Remember, using a public account will allow your fellow Quest Scouts to share in the fun.)
