The horseshoe will be located on public property within Northfield or Dundas and will not be buried. NO digging will be needed in the retrieval of the horseshoe, and it will not require the use of a ladder. PRIVATE property is excluded, and we ask you to be respectful as you search public areas. Northfield public school grounds are exempt from this contest. Please stay off all school property, including the colleges.
Clue #1 – Aug 27th, 2025 – Wednesday.
Now gather ’round, you seekers true, for tales of yore, I’ll spin for you.
A man once rode with fire and pride, where Jesse’s gang came to collide.
A quiet soul, a friend to men, this hunt begins about Chip DeMann.
He volunteered his spirit, for truth and history’s plea, a guardian of the past, for all the world to see.
