The medallion is one of the geocoins from the North Ogden Parks, Trails and Open Lands Committee. The medallion has the code "GSD291" on the Cherry Days side as shown in the image above. It is 1.75" round. Similar coins (with different codes) can be purchased from the Parks and Recreation Office (2705 N 550 E) for $15. Proceeds go towards the North Ogden City Parks.
For the person that finds the medallion: take a picture with you in the spot you found it and send the text to 801-940-1838 saying "found it" with your name. Afterwards, bring it into the Parks and Recreation Office by July 1st at 5:00 PM and you will win a pool party at North Shore Aquatic Center for up to 200 people in August 2022. This is over a $300.00 value.

Shown in the labors of this great farm industry.
