Do you remember Lego Man? After a long hiatus living life off the grid, Lego Man is back to celebrate Clinton County with "Where is Lego Man?" He'll appear every week at a new location and challenge you to guess where he is. We'll send out an email with the answer later this week! He'll also make an appearance at some of our events and who knows where else he might show up. He's ready to be out and about after living off the grid for so long, and excited to celebrate Clinton County!

So, appearing for the first time, Where is Lego Man? Drop your guess below in the comments and we'll share the answer on Friday!
