4. Concord was disqualified from a state drinking water taste test. Officials say it's 'water under the bridge.'

Despite the hiccup, Concord's water team remains proud of Penacook Lake's protected supply and the city's long winning streak, stressing that the kid-judged festival is about education and friendly rivalry, not official water quality rankings.
