The "Where Is This?" Contest is a fun guessing game of locations in Beacon, where the winner is awarded a small prize from a Beacon shop in or near Main Street. Katie is out and about quite a lot in Beacon, pushing a stroller, shopping, working at coffee shops, you name it. On these outings, she snags obscure pictures of commonly seen locations in Beacon, NY 12508. Beaconites are challenged to guess where the picture was taken, and the first right answer wins the prize. Beaconites have enjoyed this contest so much, they even visit past pictures to test their knowledge just for fun. The contest was created to help people notice what they drive or walk by all of the time, but may not notice. And, to just feel that "I know it!" moment.

To be included in the grab bag of prizes for the "Where Is This?" Contest is free for local shops in Beacon. A new contest is posted at least one week apart, and if a good picture was taken. People find out about a new contest by way of their RSS feeds (and sometimes guess before it's shared!), BeaconCitizen, Facebook and Twitter.
