What type of mine can you find on Whiskey Island? (quiz)

Before we dive into the latest headlines, your friendly neighborhood quiz writer needs to admit something: They got a little sidetracked this week. While scrolling through the news (for work reasons, of course), they stumbled on a fascinating fact about a massive mine hiding in plain sight on Cleveland’s Whiskey Island. Naturally, that rabbit hole led to this week’s first quiz question — because what’s more Cleveland than an industrial mystery beneath our feet?

After that little detour, we’re back to business. This week’s quiz covers everything from scholarships to sales tax holidays to a potential new revenue stream for Cleveland Metroparks. If you’ve been paying attention to Signal Cleveland or just chatting with your neighbors, you’ve got a solid shot at nailing all four.

The quiz is short, fun and local — just like your favorite neighborhood festivals. Whether you’re in it to test your civic smarts, learn something new, or just earn some serious bragging rights, we’re glad you’re here.

Take your best shot — and don’t forget to share your score with friends (or rivals). Let’s keep the local love going.

And, congrats to quiz takers Mara L., Sierra L., Biz H., Jeri M. and Sal N. for scoring 100% on last week’s quiz.

Let’s go.
