The contest is now closed.

Grab a magnifying glass — you’re officially invited to CHStoday’s first “wordsearch.” Time to show off your whip-smart sleuthing skills to find terms familiar to the Holy City. 🔍

This game is open to all, and the rules are simple: Turn today’s newsletter here into a wordsearch. That’s right. Within this newsletter only, locate 10 Charleston buzzwords. Any section of today’s newsletter is fair game, including this one.

The rules

Locate the following words in the newsletter: historic, surf, garden, fish, brunch, cocktail, patio, oysters, sea, and pineapple.
Tell us where you found each of them in one email here by 11:59 p.m. on May 26 along with your name (first name, last initial).

The fun stuff

The sixth person to submit all 10 word locations correctly will get a shoutout in our newsletter + a $10 gift card to The 6AM Shop via email. (The 6AM Shop is run by the same behind-the-scenes crew who delivers your daily newsletters — shop Charleston swag.)
Have a word puzzle idea you think we should do next time? Let us know.

Stay tuned for the answer key in an upcoming newsletter. Happy searching. 🔍
