Clues
Clue #1
Published on Wednesday, August 17, 2016
Wahkon Welcomes You - divas, dudes and digging crews
In your search don’t destroy, in city limits you will see it
No tools or digging needed, just follow the rules
It’s there, below it, but you must first believe it.
Explanation:
Wahkon Welcomes You sign in view from the treasure area. The treasure was hidden under a tree branch, but it was camouflaged and hard to see so you really needed to believe it was there to find it

Clue #3
Published on Thursday, August 18, 2016
Three in a row? Say it ain't so!
Three hides with height, three birds in flight.
Three platted areas of old,
but only one will lead to the gold.
Explanation:
3rd treasure in a row hidden off the ground, 3 birds in flight are on garage on adjacent property. If you look back at Wahkon history, the three original platted areas that eventually made up the city of Wahkon are Lawrence, Pottstown and Wahkon, some of our clues reference streets on the Pottstown Plat

Clue #4
Published on Friday, August 19, 2016
To unwrap our mystery
Look closely, study your history
The main thing to find
Is a tree of the right kind.
Explanation:
Telling you that you will need to look closely and for something to unwrap. Tree is a double meaning referring both to it being hidden on a tree and if you look at the old historical plats and find the right kind of tree - Pine - that would put you in Pottstown on the street perpendicular to the trail the treasure was hidden by.

Clue #5
Published on Friday, August 19, 2016
Stay to the right going west - is that for bikes?
Or stay to the right going east - is that for you?
Or stay to the right you must - while arrows point left!
Line up from Onamia to Isle - but it won't be on it.
Explanation:
Refers to the signs on the Soo Line Trail as well as signs on the highway near the treasure area. Also, the first letters of the first three sentences give you Soo and the last sentence starts with Line, together giving you Soo Line.

Be confident, don't toss away your spot
You should search through the un-streets
Law can change and shape a town
Have new needs? Then change the plat!
