Clue #1
Winterfest is here, we are lucky to have snow,
Our activities are many, and the cold brings us a glow.
Some people go South for the Winter season,
But we say stay here, for a very good reason.
Clue #2
The reason is clear, the medallion is here,
Route 66 and County Road 3,
Is this the area you need to be?
Make the right choice and you will see, the lucky winner you will be.
Clue # 3
3 is the way. It’s time for a rest.
Mr. Phillips is needed – we don’t jest.
Water flows close and the traffic is near,
Bending over will find it and you’ll give a big cheer!
