Book Launch: In Pursuit of the Golden Key

Windsor's creative community sure knows how to celebrate! This year is the bicentenary of the War of 1812, a conflict which formed the character of our region for years to come. Artists Dennis White and Steve Gibbs have put together a merry chase: a treasure hunt, a book, and a golden key at the centre of it all. What is the treasure, you might ask? The official website puts it simply:

The riddles, poetry, quotes and artwork all contain information that when put together will lead you to solving the puzzle and to a document entitling you to the grand prize — the treasure. The first person to correctly solve the puzzle will receive the Golden Key that will open a treasure worth over $10,000 CND. 

Why not come out to the Art Gallery of Windsor for the official book launch May 5th at 11 am?
Yes two hundred years have come and gone
Since war once ruled this land
A little knowledge you will need to solve the task at hand
A riddle or two will lead to a clue of lives from days gone by
But be aware
With whom you share
For in them the answers lie
Leotie's treasure is yours to find
It is not as hard as you think
For within these pages
Through different stages
You are bound to find a link
So your journey begins with clue number one
Good luck! As you begin today
Is it a clue for you to shout, "I've won!"
Or one that will lead you astray?
