10. If you need us this afternoon, we’ll be wolfing down some $2 tacos (it’s taco Tuesday!) under this sign at Dos Amigos Burritos on Main Street.
9. We have an idea for a movie: a Concordian wins a scavenger hunt by identifying this R at Red River Theatres.
8. Gibson’s Bookstore may have moved down the street to a bigger and better location, but if left a few things behind – including this O, at it’s previous location.
7. This one was a scavenger hunt emergency! The second C in our hunt can be found at CAVES, the 24-hour emergency veterinary site on Fort Eddy Road.
6. You can’t spell scavenger hunt without the venger, and you can’t spell NHTI without the N. And that’s precisely where you’ll find this letter. Bonus Insider information: The school was supposed to be called ZHTI, but someone put this letter in sideways.
5. Did a buddy help you find this one? It’s only fitting, since it is from the Concord Coop.
4. Based on the responses, this proved to be the second most difficult answer to find. It was certainly the highest off the ground – it’s from the old Thompson and Hoage Company sign.
3. Winner Page Cannon was the only hunter who found this elusive E, in the signage at Steeplegate Mall.
2. We could have used the ‘Y’ from the YMCA, but how easy would that have been? Instead we opted for the Y’s neighbor, The Toy Shop on North State Street.
1. Were you hot on our heat-related clues for this business? It’s the Stove Barn, on Loudon Road.
When beloved former Insider editor Ben Conant decided to hit the bricks on his way to a new gig, we sent you to the streets to bid him an appropriate scavengery farewell. And so you did! Serial scavenger and defending champ Page Cannon’s throne was seriously challenged, with a handful of people correctly identifying 9 out of 10, but Page was the only person to successfully identify that pesky “E.” Page will receive a $20 gift certificate to a Concord business of her choice. Congrats, Page, and thanks to everyone who played!
