2023 Garrison Play Days Medallion Hunt

It's been a long and winding year.
but Garrison Play Days is finally here!
Time for some much-needed R&R
Good times, great food, and good people from near and far!

In your search for the red, blue, and gold
Keep in mind your history, both newer school and old
The plot might look good on paper, but in real life you can see
Things don't always happen not everything is meant to be.

Across the street, standing watch over our prize
Is a powerful giant with two guys of a smaller size.
Are you Agent 86 or 95, mentioned but never seen
Intercepting a perp with the intelligence you glean?

The medallion hides amid a riddle for the wee
What has a dog in common with a tree,
Has in common with an almond,
And slwo rhymes with ?
