Do You Have What It Takes To Complete The ‘Great Bangor History Hunt’?

How well do you know your Bangor History? What are you doing this weekend?

If the answers to those questions are pretty well and nothing, perhaps you want to take a stab at this fun thing that's planned?!

The Bangor Historical Society is celebrating its 160th year this year, and it wants to mark the occasion the best way it knows how; with a history hunt!

According to the Facebook Event Page for the 'Great Bangor History Hunt,' the fun will kick off at 10 AM in Norumbega Park this Saturday, September 14th.

"Participants will be given a map and clues that will take them to places that tell Bangor's history. All who successfully complete the Hunt will be entered into a drawing for a $200 Grand Prize Package. There will be 4 other prizes valued at $50 each."

You can do it as an individual or put together a team of history hunters.
