Your August Resolutions are Here!

From shaping up to saving up, our monthly Capture Streak badges have been centered around a year of personal improvement. As we prepare to enter into the month of August, our latest Resolution badge challenges players to stick their noses in a book!

Each month’s unique badge is dedicated to accomplishing another New Year’s Resolution. Like our Super Streak badges, you will be awarded a badge if you capture at least one Munzee* each day for the entire month. The monthly Capture Streak badges allow for the chance to work towards a different goal each month in order to bring about a year of positive growth and change.

Benefits of Reading

Whether you have an electronic reading device or prefer to turn some good old-fashioned pages, it’s important to squeeze in the time for reading. Books impart us with knowledge, teach us valuable life lessons, immerse us in new worlds, and provide immense entertainment. Expand your knowledge and perspective by challenging yourself to read more.

But don’t just take our word for it! Looking for some proven benefits of reading? Reading is proven to provide mental stimulation,  stress reduction, knowledge, vocabulary expansion, improved memory and analytical thinking skills, better focus and concentration, stronger writing skills, peace promotion, and free entertainment.
