The carvers are carving and the hunt has begun
Keeping the search on public land
is the only way we run.
The medallion has found a nice place to rest,
Could it be east or could it be west?
Check out a City of Ely map and give it your best!

Stepping out on the town is how you have to play,
enjoy Winterfest activities on this brisk winter day
Women and men alike can decipher these clues,
But where to search first can be difficult to choose.

Viewing the beautiful art all around town
You could find the prize
if you survey this great land,
Many others are searching too,
so you'd better be quick.
But be careful where you step,
as some areas can be slick.

Are you having fun looking for me?
Are you wondering where I could be?
Have you checked all the places you like to go?
Have you looked high, and have you looked low?

Yesterday's snow made things more difficult I do agree,
But if you search real hard, the signs are there to see.
Some like the snow and cold in the wintertime,
While others like warm fun in the summertime.
Splash!

The west end of town is where you should seek....
Visit the folk school for rosemaling
and pine needle basketry.

I welcome many sleuths that are searching for me,
a round acrylic disc may be hard to see.
X marks the spot on public land matey.....

Misinterpreting these clues
can get your search off base.
Be careful or you may end up
between a rock and a hard place.

Easy today it will be, to locate the elusive disc.
For in this clue you cannot miss.
In Ely everybody waves,
Church doors are the only thing that's
open on Sundays.
Word travels fast, wheels turn slow
Yeah workin' hard and livin' right
is the only life we know.
