Clue 2:

You want the next clue? I'll give you one!

You'll find it where The burgers get done

Clue 6:

Here's the last clue, I am told

Look near where groups gather to eat

At the center of camp you'll find a treat

Answer: You are looking for a large, gold painted mailbox. It is located on the back side (toward the river) of the pavilion, OUTSIDE the pavilion. Please allow your kiddos to enjoy one treat each. Let me know if they are getting low, I'm sure I'll forget to monitor it from time to time:)
