There is a prince peace Lutheran church nearby central. They have a very detailed web site, not sure if any connections to clues from that. 
Also, possible bob dylan reference from clue 1. I was listening last night to his song 'shelter from the storm' there's the 2 shelters at central park. Lions shelter and foundatikns shelter.

But wait! What light through yonder window breaks?   The first line is quite famous, "To be or not to be", followed by "That is the question". But they have rephrased it as "See the quandary raised". So what if they really mean to say is B2 (to be) and C (See) and that is why they rephrased the second line? That would go back to Central. Avon and Victoria also go through Central. But then I'm not sure what clue 6 is about other than a church or two not too far away.

2025 Pioneer Press Medallion Hunt Clue #7

6 months 1 week ago
Here is the new clue:   Clue #7
To be or not to be
See the quandary once raised
From the town to the crown
Our hero was left half-crazed.   And the previous clues:   Clue #6
For noble or peasant life is more pleasant
If the elements are kept at bay
The greatest story gives power and glory
To those who follow the way.   Clue #5
When hunters were bidden to where it was hidden
By forces beyond their ken
We got a clue to start things anew
And hope it won't happen again   Clue #4
Water and field a refuge did yield
A place to play when cold or hot.
But as changes came they did proclaim
A new use for this pleasant plot   Clue #3
To recognize this year’s prize
Seek not geometry of yore
Would it be found stop looking around
Only the edgy will score
 
Clue #2
Over hill over dale hit the dusty trail
Better keep rolling along
In and out hear them shout
If you want to belong
 
Clue #1
Santa Ana’s churning, things are burning
The city hills are glowin’
The beast returns as the hunter yearns
The answer my friend is blowin’

P.S. Warning - Do not take the Mark!
(Rev 13:16)  And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:(Rev 13:17)  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.(Rev 13:18)  Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
This could happen very soon! And once it happens it will be too late!So what's next?I'd repent and get right with Jesus, asap!. He died on the cross for you because He loves you. Your sins can now be washed clean but you have to make the next move and seek God. God will not go against your free will. He wants to Love you, but you have to let Him in. Let Him know today! No one is promised tomorrow...

Re: Clue 6 guess

6 months 1 week ago
ill go 10 on tony schmidt   Some of my noodles- mostly stretches   I was thinking hidden falls -the puck re-hidden and a reused clue from hidden falls in '07, "over hill over dale".   -Maybe the ford plant was a refuge from development, which changed from the ford plant into a pleasant plot for people to live. -edgy - on the edge of the county and edgcumbe also the street names Kenneth, Field, Bayard. I learned most of those are pretty generic and all over the county.  I kept seeing Plant in pleasant(a stretch) clue 6 started with "for" maybe could elude to ford or fort. and "power" eluding to the dam or ford steam plant and "follow the way" - follow ford parkway     Now Tony Schmidt seems to fit better for me blowin - Flaherty's arden bowl Hill is used a couple times -Arden Hills Yore - Old hwy 10 Around - round lake Henry Mc'Ken'ty named lake johanna after his wife military references and "forces" - close to the armory hot and cold is a Katy Perry song - First white settler on Johanna was Charles Perry clue 5 could refer to the 2012 hunt  "for noble" - 4th and noble st? "Elements are" it almost sounds like elementary but probably not also, round lake north of the park shows is owned by "Minnesota Valley Natl Wildlife Refuge"   haha, my mind will probably change again at midnight.

Clue #8  

Two men who held office most high are to be found not all that nigh,

Yet they matter, and this is why - between them you'll rake in your pay.

Water is something to avoid, though a bit of ice was employed.

Don't slip or you will be annoyed before heading out old Tom's way.

 

what do you think?

 

some of these seem like they reference Crosby Farm and some make me think Harriet Island?

The Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt is part of the St. Paul Winter Carnival every year. While the prize can only go to one winner, The Allison Wonderland is dedicated to the community spirit of treasure hunting. Here, not only will you find out about the Pre-Dig Gig, the Rehash Bash, and various other social events, but we also discuss the clues here in a team effort to decipher them (albeit not always successfully). This is a place to discuss ideas respectfully, report on what's happening "on the ground", and provide each other with useful information. This is a public group so expect that anything posted will be seen by everyone.
