It’s up to you to locate him everyday, for a chance to win a prize. It’s an idea from the Mexico Town Office to feature the 5-foot Elf on the Shelf. Miguel will be moving each day from one business to another in Rumford and Mexico.
Clues will be posted daily on the Town of Mexico Facebook page. Read the clue to figure out where he’s hiding each day. When you find him, have an employee from that business sign your calendar.
Turn in your filled calendar by Dec. 27. The person with the most signatures will win a prize.
