In the mood for a historical adventure?
Look no further than the Allen County Historical Society and Iola Area Chamber of Commerce.
The joint venture is a scavenger hunt for Allen County businesses, most of which have historical significance.
How well can you recognize the images associated with each one? Find the full list on the jump page for this story.
The hunt starts today, and you have until April 16 to submit your answers to either the historical museum or chamber office (in the Bowlus basement).
Those with the highest scores (out of 15 questions) will have a chance at the following prizes:
-Audacious Boutique gift card for $50
-Pete’s gift card for $10
-Iola Register three-month digital/print subscription
-KwiKom internet installation
-Allen Community College swag (mugs, etc)
-Chamber Bucks from PSI Insurance ($25 value)
-Storage and RV of Iola free propane tank refill (up to 4.5 gallons)
-New Allen County Historical Society booklet ($7 value)
Along with the scavenger hunt, you can also devise an adventure of your own with some help from the Allen County Historical Society.
They’ve just released the first volume in a series of historical sketchbooks, which you can purchase for $7 (or win via the above scavenger hunt).
