All you need is an internet connection! Each barcode will be assigned a specific URL, so that you will be able to access the next clue by typing www.baltimoreconcertopera.com/1234567 (example URL) into your web browser.

SYBARITIC FAITHFUL:
Okay, who wants to be on my team… this is going to be awesome! Can I get an “AMEN?” Please leave me a comment if you plan on participating. If you’re too far away from the Baltimore Renaissance, let me know what you think of Baltimore Concert Opera’s social media blitz. Are you one of the vendors? As usual, give me all the juicy details…
