Congratulations to Alexander Astocaza of Sedalia, who'd been studying the clues for five days, and cracked the limericks this afternoon, Friday, March 14, 2025, and found our coin!

Where DId We Hide The Coin?

The coin was hidden by some blue benches near the playground equipment in Katy Park. The sidewalk had some cracks, and our limericks indicated that you look for the twine behind the lines!  We'll admit, our limerick writer might have had a little bit of fun with a bit of misdirection and references to previous coin hunts, but can you blame us? We need to have some fun!

According to our spies, many who searched came close, but Alexander didn't give up while searching and found the coin!  I caught up with Alexander when he brought the coin to the stations and you can hear our conversation below.
