Frosty Clue Week 5

He’s REFIRED now — time for reward

Thirty five years serving the Lord

Son, daughter, and wife

They’ve had a great life

Options can now be explored

His presence subdued, but not gone

Even though he has passed the baton

South Dakota retreat

Helps make life complete

His motto: Keep calm and hunt on


Frosty Clue Week 4

Frosty helped with the design

Dedicated in ninety nine

A needed addition

He made it his mission

A task that he had to assign

Showing grace as he served out his tenure

Wise council, but without a lecture

The pastures now greener

The arrow now keener

Frosty has seen much adventure


Frosty Clue Week 3

Always there was a wild feast

And each year the numbers increased

His game he prepared

With others he shared

Venison, fowl, and roast beast

Frosty’s life doesn’t stand stilI

It’s doubtful he’ll let it until

The game is all done

And he runs out of fun

Then he can head for the hills


Frosty Clue Week 2

Changes came over the years

And Frosty’s job often switched gears

From teacher to guide

He sat by their side

As folks shared their joys and their tears 

Our Frosty’s a man of renown 

You’ve probably seen him around

He finds time most days

To hit balls and praise

Both of them done with head down


Frosty Clue Week 1

Meet Frosty, a shepherd by trade 

Who loved the outdoors where he played

He knows what it means

To live well on greens

He came to Waseca and stayed

With others, he studied the past

Leading those joining the class

A turkey was planned

For this hungry band

But never delivered, ALAS.
