Show your knowledge of Loudoun County by participating in our 2009 New Year's Contest. If you can correctly identify the locations of the letters spelling "Happy New Year," you will be entered to win one of two prizes, including a $100 gift certificate for Wine Kitchen, a new restaurant in Leesburg.

We here at LoudounExtra.com were inspired by a similar, more high-tech game by STLtoday.com. We hope you all have as much fun playing the game as we did creating it.

The contest will run for two weeks, starting Monday, Dec. 22, 2008, and ending Monday, Jan. 5, 2009, so it will give you enough time to make a game of it during the holidays. Get the kids involved, make it a chance to get out of your neighborhood and above all, have fun!
