Museum Impossible – Operation: Spy Academy

Okanagan Military Museum 1424 Ellis Street, Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada

After Germany took over France, Winston Churchill established the Special Operations Executive (SOE). It aimed to send undercover agents to weaken the enemy in any way possible.

You are a student at Camp X, Canada’s top-secret spy school in Ontario. You will be trained in war skills, communications, and critical thinking. To complete your Spy Academy training, you must visit the training centres located throughout the Okanagan Military Museum and complete tasks to earn clues. Then, use your code wheel to decipher a five-part message in your ‘student workbook’ and complete your Spy Academy training.
