Latest Winner Of Monthly Enfield Patch Trivia Contest Announced

ENFIELD, CT — For the second time in as many months, no one correctly looked up/guessed all 10 answers in our February Enfield Patch trivia contest, but three readers came close and wound up in a random drawing to determine our latest winner.

This month's lucky contestant was Pat Droney, who will no doubt be disappointed that his prize will not be a 7-day, 2-night cruise to downtown Rockville. Instead he has to settle for a $25 gift card to Jersey Mike's. Congratulations, Lieutenant.

Our March contest will likely contain a few questions that can only be answered by figuring out how to navigate the town's website. Hope we have some MIT professors on hand to decipher that.

In the meantime, here are the February questions and the correct answers:

1. The street on which I grew up, Douglas Drive, was constructed in 1961, and until 1969 it was a cul-de-sac. What was the highest house number on the street for its first eight years before expansion? 12
