Medallion Hunt Clues

Monday June 30th: Clue 1-
Two days to go before we start, the carnival at the waterfront park! 
A treasure lies somewhere, so seek! Prizes for the bold and for the meek!

Tuesday July 1st: Clue 2-
Tomorrow starts the Jaycee fun, but yet a prize is to be won!
On public land a medallion hid, so venture out and make a bid!

Wednesday July 2nd: Clue 3-
Today's the day the carnival start, down among the waterfront park.
Yet away lies the medallion-in-wait, on public land with a swing metal gate.

Thursday July 3rd: Clue 4-
It's not to hard, too puzzling, too tough! To find the treasure hidden in the rough!
Hidden outside in the yard, of the park bearing the name of the mineral hard!

Friday July 4th: Clue 5-
At the point of the diamond stands a tree, with a part at the bottom to look in and see!
For the first to find, a treasure it holds! Go seek it out now! Go now! Be bold!
