Yellow Rock Park was the scene of more than 25 citizens and tourists competing for a one-year citizenship courtesy of AWI on March 14th. The four trails led the treasure hunters through many of the areas of the park and beyond. From hotels and disco clubs to winter lodges and skating ponds the participants journeyed through various builds to the final destination where the treasure chest was located. The first place winner was "GeertJan" with Riff and Ryan T coming in second and third. In spite of a few wrinkles, it seems a fun time was had by all.
