The Lowell Riddler: Third Clue for Riddle #9 in 2022

There is a new game in town. The Lowell Riddler is hiding medallions in and near the City of Lowell for residents to find and turn in for gift cards to local businesses. Below are the first, second, and third clues for Riddle #9 of the year.

Note: This riddle has been solved!

 

Clue #1

When day and night are the same,

And everyone’s glad they came.

You might hear a chant,

Or maybe you can’t

In that place with a rock in its name.

Clue #2

Think of the summer solstice,

A symbol that’s known to most of us.

Give it a shake.

Make the earth quake.

Visit the spirits coaching us.

Clue #3

A field of trees makes canoes.

Two dozen or so win or lose.

According to polls,

Many parts, more wholes,

When we scored, where you’d find all the booze.

Riddling Instructions:

When You Find the Medallion: Immediately, take a selfie while holding the medallion in the location that you found it.  Then email the selfie, your name, the location you found it, along with your mailing address and phone number to [email protected]. Your prize package will be mailed to you and your selfie will be published on Lowell’s First Look web page. The medallion is yours to keep as a memory of riddling expertise.

Always Remember: Hidden medallions are accessible 24 hours a day. They will always be hidden in the City of Lowell and nearby township locations linked to the city by sidewalk or trail.  They will never be on private property.  They will never be in the cemetery.  They will never be buried in the ground. You may have to move grass, snow or leaves or remove a covering of colored tape to see them. They will always be within reachable height by an adult.  They could be hanging on a string or rubber band or attached by a magnet.  Your participation in this activity is purely voluntary. Please respect icy, slippery conditions and crossing busy streets.  Most of all, have fun solving the riddle.

Riddler Prize Donations: The Lowell Riddler welcomes prize donations of gift cards and Lowell Bucks in $20-$25 amounts! Help “Riddle It Forward” by boosting Lowell businesses and create some family fun at the same time! Send those gift cards and Lowell Bucks to The Lowell Riddler, P.O. Box 883, Ada, MI 49301 OR drop them off at the Lowell Area Chamber of Commerce.  Your generosity will be mentioned as a prize sponsor unless you prefer to be anonymous.  Please direct your questions and comments to [email protected]

We will be publishing new clues each Saturday at 9 am. Once a riddle has been solved we will update this article, the graphic at the top of our website, and the Facebook post where we shared the article to indicate that the current riddle has been solved. This will be done as soon as we’re able after hearing from The Riddler. Within a few days after a riddle has been solved we will publish an article explaining where the riddle was found and who the winner is. Happy hunting!
