Where in the world are we? (An OLC Game Night)
Brief Abstract
For this game night, we're bringing back GeoGuessr, a maps and location-based virtual guessing game. We'll break up into teams and use our collective knowledge to guess as many correct locations as we can while racing against the clock. The team with the highest number of correct guesses will be awarded prizes. The OLC is known for fun, low-stakes, and inviting evening events. Whether they are intense and gameful or entertaining and reflective, they are designed to make space for one of the greatest things about the OLC: our community. Mark your calendars now and plan to end your day engaging in volunteer-led shenanigans through the OLC Innovate evening events!
