I brought Pittsburgh into the fold in 2018 during the 10th iteration of DASH which was entitled Deputies Allied to Secure Homesteads and was wild west themed. As a coordinator, my duties were to find locations where players can stop to complete puzzles, acquire any permissions or permits necessary for this, coordinate with main organizers about resources I needed to be mailed to Pittsburgh or purchased and reimbursed, organize puzzle materials into kits for each location, recruit volunteers to help day-of, and create a map and other resources for players. Below is the map of Tenderfoot Falls (East End Pittsburgh) from 2018. DASH #11 occurred in Pittsburgh in 2019. That year I partnered with my pal Dillon to make it happen. He made the map for 2019 and did a great job! DASH #12 has yet to occur since the COVID-19 pandemic occurred in 2020-2021. |
