Clue #2
Published on Tuesday, June 9, 2020
The first Father Hennepin Festival was celebrated in 1929
and a marker was placed to memorialize the historic river crossing.
The Bicentennial Committee in 1976, brought back the festival to its original shine.
There was even a parade with a lot of candy tossing.

Since that time, the festival has been made even bigger and better.
With big bands, fun rides, great food, and always good weather.
The best part of all is the fireworks show.
Even though we'll miss it this year, next year it'll be back, we know.

This summer will be different than any year before,

There's a map and some photos to get you on the right track,

Summer is a busy time in this City of ours
Everyone from the Clerks to the Public Works Crew
is working hard and putting in long hours.
While you're out hunting be sure to give a wave or two.

Soon there'll be soccer and softball and playing in parks
and fireworks filling up the skies with their sparks.
Visiting with friends and family that we haven't seen in a while
But finding me would surely bring the best smile.
