Rules:
To get credit for a puzzle piece, you will need to take a picture of the people who participated in the walk at the destination of the walk (for example, you would take a picture at Bryan Park or at the IU Auditorium to prove that you made it to the farthest point of the route). Feel free and have fun with this, selfies (or “ussies” – multiple people in frame for a selfie) are encouraged.
Please email the image to iupuzzlechallenge@gmail.com as soon as your walk is complete.
