This has to do with the play-at home internet game that goes along with the Treasure Hunters show on NBC.
I'm pretty sure I have it figured out. The clues on the notebook give you hints about what the "symbol" is. The circled words point you to the location you're trying to find (where this "symbol" is laid out). The artifacts you've been collecting form a map when placed on the game board, and the location is somewhere on that map. It all makes sense once you stumble onto the answer.

The pieces of the puzzle can be put together to look like a map of Washington DC. This can best be seen in Google Earth by entering simply, Washington DC. The missing piece is the Capital Building. I don't know which of the monuments is the final answer, but DC is definitely your goal.

I am lost on where it is...but I do know from one of the many specials I have watched...they are most likely talking about the free mason. Saw this thing on TV that said the free Mason hid a lot of symbols all over washington DC. So who knows if it is that or something else.

Intentionality and Early Symbol Use
Written By: Judy S. DeLoache
The extraordinary power of human cognition arises in large part from our creative andflexible use of symbols. Adults employ a vast array of symbol systems to facilitatecommunication, from language to a variety of special-purpose objects and general-purposemedia. A crucial aspect of the creation and use of symbols is intentionality. When I use asymbolic representation of some sort to communicate something to you, it is my intention thatyou interpret the relation between the symbol and its referent in the same way that I do. If youdo not, my communicative effort will have failed; the symbol will not convey what I wanted itto. If, for example, I show you a map and tell you it shows the location of buried treasure, itwill be of no use to you if you don't know how maps relate to reality in general or if you don'tunderstand how you are supposed to use this particular map. The central role accorded to intentionality in this view of symbolizationsuggests that both the onset and subsequent development of symbolic skills may be related tothe development of the understanding of intentionality. To interpret a symbol correctly,children have to have some idea of why the other person is using it. This view thus suggests that some understanding of human intention would precede theuse of symbols in general. The first presentation in the symposium speaks directly to thisissue. It argues that chimpanzees' lack of understanding of communicative intent precludes theuse of symbols for communicative purposes. In contrast, human infants draw on theirunderstanding of human intention to begin to master the use of symbols for communication. The second paper underscores the importance of intentionality in early symbol use byshowing that in a rich communicative situation, the precise nature of a symbol is not asimportant to young infants as the context in which it is used. In a context in which an adultmakes it clear that a given symbol--whether a word, gesture, picture--stands for a particularentity, the infant will learn the symbol-referent relation. The third presentation focuses on young children's explicit understanding of the role ofintentionality in the production of a symbolic artifact. A series of studies reveals that theirprimary criterion for judging the content of a picture is what the artist intended to draw,regardless of what the picture actually looks like. In the last presentation, the role of intentionality is examined in very young children'suse of a symbolic object in two different problem-solving contexts. One set of studies revealsthat the intended relation between a symbolic object (a scale model) and its referent (a largerspace) must be explicitly explained and demonstrated for young children to detect the relation. A second set of studies using a different task reveals a clear relation between the extent towhich young children understand an adult's intention to give them a clue using a symbolicobject and their ability to solve the problem.
