We’ll be posting a handful of questions over the next few months to get you warmed up. We don’t know yet how many questions you’ll have to answer. But it will be enough to challenge you and make it fun. Once our faithful reader has read the whole series, we’ll announce the end of the contest. You’ll have a period of time to research the answers and submit via email. We’ll award the Grand Prize to the submission with the greatest number of correct answers. In the case of a tie, we’ll hold a drawing for names, administered by an independent agency – our 13-year-old granddaughter.
