The brief

The mission

Investigate a local unsolved mystery. A pack of 3 to 5 people taking this on over 12 weeks, a mix of online and in person, at about a few hours a week each.

Why it's worth it

Archives, records, footwork. See how far you actually get. Nobody pulls off learn something work like this on their own, and that's the point. You get the thing done, and you get the people you did it with.

Done looks like

Write it up. Something real to point at, and a pack that's still talking afterwards.
