About
The Great Bath Bank Heist was Canada's biggest bank robbery. On August 20th, 1945, armed robbers stole $10,000 in Cash and $340,000 in Bearer Bonds from the Royal Bank of Canada. The stolen loot is estimated to be equivalent to FIVE MILLION DOLLARS today! The robbery made headlines across Canada.
Was the loot hidden in St. Alban's United Empire Loyalist Memorial Church in Adolphustown, just 20 miles west of Bath? Clues say it was!
Evading Police Roadblocks, the Robbers fled from Bath west along the Loyalist Highway, to Adolphustown. Making a stop at St. Alban's UEL Memorial Church, they dashed in through the open doors, and after a few minutes fled west along the Loyalist Highway again, escaping onto the Glenora Ferry and across the Bay, never to return.
Now St. Alban's UEL Memorial Church is undergoing repairs to restore and preserve it. What will the workers find? Or will YOU find the loot first?
Posing as Historical Researchers, your task is to find the stolen loot from the Great Bath Bank Heist! You have only a short time to find it before the construction crew starts and restorations begin. Can you find the hidden treasure?
