Revealing the Revolution Challenge Extended to July 31

For the past several months the BDC, Beaufort County Historical Society and the Beaufort County 250 Committee has been trying to get folks out to explore the American Revolution related historic markers within Beaufort and Jasper counties with our "Revealing the Revolution" project. There's still time for you to participate in the Library Quest and/or the deluxe challenge - but time is swiftly falling away for you to do so. If you want to be entered into the Grand Prize drawing for the framed Mills Atlas (1825) map of Beaufort District (reproduction), you need to get your game sheet returned to us by July 2 as originally planned.  

The Library Quest and the Historic Marker Challenge has been extended to July 31, 2026 -- which gives you more time to get out there and learn some Revolutionary War history connected to the long and storied history of Beaufort District and win the car sticker and challenge coin prizes. (Please note: Those who turn in completed game sheets July 3 - 31 will be eligible only for the car sticker and challenge coin prizes.) As our partner says "It's fun! It's free!! It's history!!!"

We will give away the car stickers and commemorative coins indicating your success as appropriate until our limited-edition supply runs out. But you cannot win, if you don't submit your completed game sheets to one of the collection boxes at the Branch libraries or on the bookmobiles by the deadline. Don't want to come to a library location? That's okay too. You can submit your completed game sheet online through the Beaufort County Historical Society's website. Please note: The Beaufort County Historical Society will mail out the car stickers and commemorative coins in early August to those who have successfully completed the historic marker challenge.
