The leaves are falling, the ballots are cast, and Cleveland has given us plenty to talk about this week. Before we dig into the headlines, we’re starting with a familiar brand whose story began right here. Think you know your hometown well enough to spot the Cleveland connection?
Showing up for our community doesn’t end on Election Day. It also means paying attention to how public money gets spent and whether the needs of our neighborhoods get met. This week’s quiz mixes that civic spirit with a little local nostalgia. Give it a shot — you might earn some bragging rights or discover another reason to keep learning about the place we call home.
Before we get started, let’s give a shout-out to quiz takers Donna W., Elizabeth H., Jennifer R., John M., Katura P., Kaushik S., Margaret M., Marlin W., Martha G., Mary M., Mike H., Sal N. and Timothy K. for scoring 100% on last week’s news quiz. Well done.
Ready. Set. Quiz.
