Celebrate the 90th Annual Fall Festival in Arkansas City, KS - October 26 - 29, 2022
CLUE #1
The Medallion Hunt has begun
And we’d like for you to join the fun
Uncle Sam likewise wants you to enlist
Follow these rules, they cannot be missed
Do not destroy, deface or dig around
Limit your searching to public ground
Daily clues will lead to the treasure you seek
Find it, and you will have $500 more this week
Clue #2
Betsy would be so proud of Jace’s theme
To her, American Made is more than just a dream
She put her nimble talents to good use
Creating a symbol to mass-produce
Originally, she stitched only 13 onto blue
Now 37 more decorate this same hue
As you search for this five-point object constructed out of metal
Give homage to the servicemen and women refusing to settle
Flying high with all its splendor
Pike’s donation helps us to remember
We enjoy living in the land of plenty
Because of sacrifices made by many
Clue #3
All gave some, and some gave all
More than just a plaque upon a wall
Americans from all across the region
Forging together, creating a legion
Moving in the same direction
Oftentimes providing protection
Your posted assignment is far more frivolous
Locating the medallion is your stimulus
Clue #4
Some battles are fought from home,
Others from abroad
These servicemen and women
We should reverently applaud
Some organizations provide
Assistance or even recognition
For these deserving veterans
And all of their ambition
We rally 'round the families
Uniting in celebration and in grief
The effects of war are everlasting
Leaving many in disbelief
Clue #5
Remembrance can be shown in many ways
Some might prefer a somber celebration
While others enjoy getting together
Or even creating an event for jubilation
Yes, remembering can take on any form
It can be done in prayer or by wish
Just ask Jerry’s family for they know
That it can even involve fish
