2017 Coon Rapids Snowflake Days Hunt

Snowflake Days are upon us, time to sharpen your wit,
Our Marquis has been chosen, the Great Sue Leggate;
The events are in gear with several happening today,
Kids medallion hunt, the Sock Hop, to golf in a simulator bay.

So gather yourself, your family and friends,
Share your vows to be resilient as a means to your ends;
The weather can impact the success of your quest, 
From well below zero or a January thaw would be best.

Every year about this time Rocky jots down some rhymes,
Recording his thoughts or simply babbling at times;
Look out at the snow, feel the wind and the cold,
As somewhere out there is a medallion of gold.

No need would be made to search private land,
Down onto city owned property your search will command;
Spreading out in the city some crowds may occur,
On the quick find of treasure, we are no friends of the burr.

Now is the time to gather all for the ride,
Snowflake Days is upon us and you cannot win if untried;
A picture button is needed of Rocky sliding swift down a hill,
Pick one up to be eligible for less than a five dollar bill.

Things may be frozen or you may slip in the mud,
Your mind may adopt to the thought of giving up blood;
To locate this object just think of the power of three,
And a pillar of strength will guide and the force set you free.

For its time to gather like those with the wisdom of owls,
To a route named for the attraction to colloquially cows;
Cautionary advice is the norm many times in your sight, 
Between green and orange in the spectrum of light.

Abide by the rules while you are out in the cold, 
You may be under surveillance or so we’ve been told;
Take the kids to Eisenhower School for some great family fun,
The Children’s Carnival is today from ten until one.

Most elephants won’t work to help you in your quest,
They will exceed the limit allowed or too close at the best;
The cause for concern would be worse over time,
For a redox reaction could cause you to feel a maritime slime.

An acronym from the unit of language somewhere maybe found,
From the verses they form on this quantitative meter of sound;
The rules must be followed with honor and class,
Five others proceeded representing the mass.

Down the CCRT from the CRCC to the cattle path we now can agree,
Proceed with care as the course down this way is slippery you see; 
Modes of transportation abound in a perpendicular line, 
Then descend to an internal motion of a Foster Brooks like design.
