The bear detective received the best surprise!   The newsletter had an email to address the poem writer so I sent her a photo and a bad poem back that read:

Our litte guy
looked way up high
and look what he spotted!
Thanks for the time you allotted!

She turned out to be this very sweet long time resident that happens to do embroidery!  She asked if she could bring by a prize for the first guy who found the bear.

Of course! I expected a candy bar and a nice conversation with a resident (all of whom are so friendly).  But it was better than candy!  It was a new favorite sweater for the bear detective.
