Vitame Vas to the Kolacky Capital of the World.
Within these streets, both old and new,
A treasure waits for one of you.
Not far from where the people meet,
It rests beneath your searching feet
No need to stray past borders tight –
The prize is tucked within plain sight.
A whisper flows where stillness stays,
So roam with care both keen and kind
For those who seek are sure to find

Clue 2
Published Date
Tuesday, July 22, 2025, 9:00 AM

Open ground beneath the sun’s soft gaze,
A resting place through summer’s haze.
No doors to pass, no steps to climb,
Just space that waits in quiet time.
Where whispers drift and shadows play,
A trace of flow may pass your way.
The prize lies still, but don’t delay

Clue 3``
Published Date
Wednesday, July 23, 2025, 9:00 AM

Drawn to stillness under sky so wide,
Where whispers echo, nothing to hide.
No signs will shout, no voices yell—
Just silent forms that stories tell.

A vantage high may watch below,
But what it guards, you may not know.
Let instinct guide you, not due course—
The path ahead leans toward the North.
