2025 Lakefield Summerfest Medallion Hunt

Submitted by Administrator on
2025 Lakefield Finders
Congratulations to the winners of the 2025 Discover Lakefield Medallion Hunt!
After following riddles, tracking down clues, and cracking a clever number puzzle, the medallion has officially been found!
How It Worked:
Throughout the hunt, four clue locations around Lakefield were found by riddles, each containing a set of mysterious numbers.
Here’s the twist:
1. The numbers were out of order.
2. Each clue was labeled “One,” “Two,” “Three,” “Four,” or “Five.”
3. If you rearranged the number sets in that spelled-out order, they revealed a latitude and longitude.
Those coordinates led directly to the large green space where the old middle school once stood—and that’s where the medallion was hidden!
Thank you to everyone who took part—we hope you had as much fun exploring as we did creating it.
We hope you all enjoyed… DISCOVERING LAKEFIELD!
Winners: Left to right : Wyatt Edwards, Buckley Elness, Kelsey Edwards, Jordin Elness.

Out where the sun says its daily goodbye,
A green space swings ‘neath the open sky.
Near petals and stems where colors grow,
A whisper of fragrance the breezes know.
