SHOPPER’S GUIDE ISSUE OF NOVEMBER 3, 2021 • FIRST SECTION

271 MAIN STREET, DOWNTOWN GREAT BARRINGTON

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE GRAND PRIZE WINNER!

Cheryl Gajewski, General Manager gives a check for $1,000 to Christian Demanbey.

The GRAND PRIZE was found in McAllister Park in Great Barrington!

1.

COMPLE T E CLUES LI ST

It’s the glorious Summer of renewal in ‘21 May your excitement for The ‘GRAND’ be the same.

Pay close attention and enjoy the hunt, And you just might win the game!

7.

Humphrey Bogart won’t be at the bar Although they carry his affectionate name.

But you’re too far ‘down east’, my friend, If you want to put the big check in a frame.

Although I don’t have as many books As The Mason Public Library, We do have something in common And you enjoy reading my clues, I see.

2.

Search for The ‘GRAND’ with a whole bunch of friends Or hunt all along with your pup.

But leave your shovel at home, my friend, As you won’t have to dig me up.

8.

You don’t need a club in your hand to shoot even par If you ace my connection with The Gate House at Bard.

You might hoist the trophy as the game winning star Then you can brag you hit it out of the yard.

14.

If you’re tired and stressed and worried That you won’t create a ‘GRAND’ pay day, I hope you won’t need to be hospitalized But Fairview’s not that far away.

3.

The objective is to be the first to locate The secret hiding place of The ‘GRAND’.

Keep in mind, wherever that may be Will not be on someone’s private land.

9.

You might not spot a Sea Lion out there But how ‘bout a Prairie Whale? – you could!

Maybe stop by for a beverage and a bite Then point your compass West – you should.

15.

If you could choose between Shawmuts, Comets, or Grommets Only one can help you the most.

You could be rockin’ with a grand in your hand Or, of course, you could just be toast.

4.

Where should you launch a successful search That you’re confident won’t tax your brain?

You might wish to begin from our previous site Near Fox Farm at the end of Lovers Lane.

10.

You still have ample time to find the loot.

Indeed The ‘GRAND’ opportunity’s not gone.

If you enjoy Great Barrington’s River Walk Stay on the side of The Housatonic that you’re on.

16.

The names of the victims might help, if you know In Bobbie Gentry’s ode, what occurred on the bridge When Billie Joe lost his life on The Tallahatchie While he was up there on Choctaw Ridge.

5.

Although you won’t find snow on the slopes yet Skiing at Catamount can be the best.

But you won’t locate the prize there And, after all, you’re too far West.

11.

If the hunt for the ‘Prize’ is making you thirsty You might enjoy a frosty libation or ice tea.

The Barrington Brewery might be your oasis But you’re further North and East than you should be.

17.

Enter the field by #6 Haley The large rock will point the way.

Be observant, now, and get there first And you’ll be rewarded with a ‘GRAND’ pay day.

6.

12.

18.

Golfers can’t wait for a Wyantenuck round With the smell of cut grass in the air.

But to secure the $1,000.00 bounty You’ll want to play North of there.

Have fun .. we’re off!

I’m not buried My location is not on private property Lover’s Lane is off Route 7, North of Great Barrington Catamount Mountain Resort is West of my location I’m North of The Wyantenuck Country Club Bogie’s Restaurant and Pub is too far East to win I’m on a vertical par with the Gate House, Bard College at

13.

In the sunset I can see the river Slowly meandering along just fine.

Credence Clearwater Revival made it a hit Back in the Summer of ’69.

Beloved poet Robert Frost advised us “It will stand forth, entirely white in bark.”

Peruse the serpent vine on the great birch And you’ll celebrate an enjoyable ‘$GRAND PRIZE$’ lark!

Simon’s Rock You’ll want to be West of The Prairie Whale Restaurant My location is on the West side of The Housatonic You’ll want to be South and West of The Brewery The Green River is West of my location I’m on a horizontal par with The Library Fairview Hospital is just a bit South and East of me Bill Haley and The Comet’s “Rock Around the Clock” …

You’ll likely want to travel Haley Road 16. In 1967’s “Ode To Billy Joe”, Billy Joe’s last name sounds just like McCallister Park 17. Enter the field by #6 Haley Road, the large rock will point you in the direction of McCallister Park 18. Before you, will stand two large birch trees. Look for the serpent vine on one, and carefully peruse the tree.

STELLA Stella is a stunning grey and tan spayed tiger. This sweet girl was unfortunately abandoned by her owner and should go to a home without other cats. She’s 10 years old, which means her adoption fee is only $50 this month in honor of Adopt A Senior Pet Month. All dogs and cats at least 7 years old at Berkshire Humane Society can be adopted to approved homes for only $50 in November. Take advantage of this deal and get shelter pets like Stella a home for the holidays!
