Naples Backyard History kicked of its Walk a Historical Block event, with the cooperation of 20 businesses dubbed Historical Ambassadors on and around historical Third Street South.

Historical photos of Collier County history, such as buildings, people and landmarks are displayed in the window fronts of the participating restaurants and stores.

The Naples Backyard History office, which is located at 1300 Third Street South, and participating businesses will be providing history report cards for all the participants to keep track of the number of questions they answer correctly. After they come up with their best guess, participants can go inside the businesses to ask for the correct answer.

When they have finished their walk, the participants can drop off their report cards at the Naples Backyard History office for a chance to win a $100 gift certificate. The drawing will take place at the end of August. Information: 594-2978.
