May is Preservation Month, a nationally recognized celebration of historic places and an opportunity to raise awareness about the importance of preservation.
This year, the Hampton Historic Preservation Commission is celebrating by again holding an historic architecture scavenger hunt where participants are challenged to identify nine buildings or structures in Hampton’s downtown main street area from a smaller, close-up photo of an architectural feature of the building or structure.
Buildings can be identified by a business located in the building.
To take part, pick up an Historic Scavenger Hunt from the Greater Franklin County Chamber of Commerce, Christensen Jewelry, or the Windsor Theatre.
Each participant who successfully identifies all nine will receive two passes to a movie at the Windsor Theatre.
