Scavenger Hunts to Find Monuments at Antietam… Why?
A bicyclist can freely zip around a battlefield park wo hunt for “intellectual treasure.” Armed with a map and a list of clues, a scavenger hunt is a great way to learn about the Battle of Antietam. Civil War Cycling’s scavenger hunts are learning exercises designed to help you figure out for yourself where a monument is located and what it looks like.
