Golden Key Hunt – Clues
Clue #1
In Warrenville’s blend of quiet and play,
A golden prize is hidden away.
It rests in a space where walkers may roam,
Yet only the seekers will bring it home.
It’s public, it’s real, it’s ready to find,
And the treasure it holds was made to remind
Clue #2
The roads may be busy, the traffic may hum,
But take just a turn, and the stillness will come.
Not deep in the woods, yet hidden from view,
This secret waits patiently, just out of queue.
