 Iconic Factories
by: Old Factories The goal of this category is to locate and photograph factories where notable products were or are made. We would prefer that this be restricted to products recognizable to most, perhaps even iconic. This could be the Corvette factory near Bowling Green, KY, the Hershey factory in Hershey, PA, or the Heinz factory in Pittsburgh. In some cases, these buildings are long gone, but record the location and giving an indication of what is there now would be acceptable. |

 Lucky 7
by: Lucky 7 This is a Waymark game to find at least seven Waymarks in a given radius. You can find and submit more than seven, but you can only use each of the Waymark departments once. All must be your Waymarks. All must be within a half-mile (0.8 KM) radius. For an extra challenge, limit the radius to a tenth of a mile (0.16 KM). Some of us WM in target rich environment.
Any future nearby Lucky Seven Waymarks cannot reuse a Waymark (WM) used in a previous WM. This means you can only use each WM once. |
 Burger Chef (Former Locations)

Aside from the business lessons learned, many of us to grew up in the 70's have very fond memories of Burger Chef. Share here. |
 Newspaper Headquarters

 Unintentionally Funny Signs
by: Unintentionally Funny Signs This category is to waymark permanent signs or markers that didn't intend to be funny, but because of their context (a word combination, or the specific location where the sign is placed) the sign takes on a second, humorous meaning.
JUST A DOUBLE MEANING OF A WORD IN THE SIGN IS NOT ENOUGH! THERE MUST BE SOMETHING CONTEXTUAL THAT BRINGS THAT DOUBLE MEANING TO MIND. SEE EXPANDED DESCRIPTION FOR EXAMPLES. |
