Utah Centennial Passport by Bicycle

What is Utah Quest! ?

Utah History is taught in the fourth grade and Utah Studies in the seventh grade throughout Utah. Utah Quest! is a program using the Utah Centennial Passport and cycling to bring interest in geography and the history of Utah to the students in Granite School District. It is hoped that the students of other school districts in the 29 counties of Utah will become involved and learn more about Utah's counties.

Pat King, who works in the Instructional Technology department for Granite School District, has spent many years backpacking or riding his bike throughout Utah. While working in one of the schools he was shown a Centennial Passport and thought it would be fun to drive to all of the counties. But, being a person who likes challenges, he decided to ride by bicycle to all of the counties instead. It is hope that through his photography and details of each of his rides that he will help to make geography and history more enjoyable to the students of Utah.
