#ConnectChallenge Study Guide to celebrate Connect's 5th birthday through quiz meet-ups

What do you know about Connect, Maps, the community? It’s time to test yourself and see how much you know :slightly_smiling_face: We are having FOUR (4) quizzes so everyone can hopefully find a time that they can attend!!!

#BirthdayChallenge #ConnectChallenge - it's time to celebrate 5 years with games

…and the HOST(s)? So many!!! @JaneBurunina @SilvyC @CeciliaRatto @PennyChristie @NareshDarji

How do you study? Follow this link to find the articles that the questions will be coming from!!!

…and a few more :slightly_smiling_face:

They are all related to the Local Guides program and also slightly expanded to cover Google Maps, Street View, Road Mapper, etc. Studying them is entirely optional but they are all easy reading and it’s a great opportunity to brush up on your knowledge too!

Can you attend more than one quiz meet-up? Absolutely! The quiz will be different in each of the meet-ups!
