A red “X” will mark the spot at six various Muscatine landmarks, only to be found along City trails if the pirate’s riddles are correctly deciphered. Participants must submit a photo entry of each “X” they find in order to win their pirate’s treasure prize. The program will begin at 5:00 pm on Friday, October 2 and continue through 5:00 pm on Monday, October 12.
