Remembering the 2011 Street Fair

The inaugural NB Street Fair Scavenger Hunt

How well do you know Street Fair? Throughout the fair week, News-Banner reporter Chet Baumgartner covertly snapped photos of different fair locations, and we're curious to see who can recognize the most. The winner receives the right to claim the unofficial title, "Biggest Street Fair Fan." You get a point for correctly identifying the game, ride or booth, a point for identifying the street, and a point for identifying the block.
