A beloved tradition filled with mystery and anticipation. Each day, a new clue brings you one step closer to the hidden medallion somewhere in Delano. Gather your clues, explore the community, and see if you can solve the puzzle before anyone else. It's a tradition built on curiosity, persistence, and a little bit of luck—will you be the one to find it?

Clues will be released at 7:00AM each morning on the Delano Fourth of July website, on the Delano Senior Center Facebook page and the Delano Fourth of July Facebook page.

Note: The Chip is NOT hidden in the carnival area of Central Park. Please avoid staff and volunteers as they set up for the festivities.

Rules:

• The granite chip is 3 inches wide by 2.5 inches tall and pays homage to the city's motto and Delano Granite Works. It is hidden somewhere on public property within Delano city limits. Please be SAFE, and be respectful to property and to others when hunting for the chip.
• Find the chip and redeem it for a $200 cash prize!
• Again this year – win an EXTRA $100 if you have a Delano Royalty button!
