Clue #9 I entered at night, and could see an arched light And fields where children playeth If you want exact location, well, that's not my vocation Where it is? I'll no saith
And the previous clues:
Clue #8
Not with cape, but maybe rake,
A hero, by another name,
With studious guys, searched for the prize And up north the puck did claim.
Clue #7 Buddy you're a big star, got a name to go far Killing it down where they park the car But you lied to their face, became a big disgrace Better pack up and get outta this place
Clue #6 Stop all your prattle, you were born for battle Defend your liberties and rights Be ever so bold to seize silver and gold By keeping the prize in your sights
Clue #5 Have you the right stuff to seek diamond in rough? Then scrounge through stick and cone If you want a big thrill look for a hill To spy a treasure to own
Clue #4 If treasure's your mark, take a waltz in the park Be ready to meet your match Strap on your glove, look up above For an object ripe for the catch
Clue #3
A bomb cyclone hit our wintry zone
On the chin, buckling our knees
Get up at your leisure to seek our fine treasure
Find fortune and live life of ease
Clue #2 Descend from your perch, set out to search East Side, west side, all around the town Glory will reign when you find the chain
To go with your cap and gown
Clue #1 The viral pandemic is now endemic
And the battle’s on for Ukraine
Take a break from the news to follow your muse And tackle these rhymes with your brain
Ben pointed out that the 1973 finders were college students who came up north from Mankato. One of them was named Zielinski which would be a variation of Zelensky which could be the capeless hero and ties back to Clue 1. Everything else could fit multiple parks, but between this and the clue yesterday likely about Phelen, it's hard to ignore and go dig elsewhere.

WBL girl the 45th parallel is at about Roselawn. There is a marker on Cleveland slightly north of Roselawn.

I saw someone post some where that they thought Bomb Cyclone (BC) was referring to Battle Creek. If you use that mentality, Central Park is between Co Rd B2 and Co Rd C. Just a thought.
I am so sorry that happened to you. I had a wallet stolen out of a stroller there last year and I wasn't far away from it. I hope you get everything squared away. It is so much work to sort all of this out. :(
I think you're onto something there Ben. I didn't want it to be at Phalen because one of my Winter Carnival Scavenger Hunts is there, but it may well be. It's hard to argue against Clue 7 being about Ed Phelen now that I'm more familiar with the story. I was kind of thinking there on the chain clue as it is part of a chain of lakes, but Como was sounding better. I don't like how it fits some of the clues compared to other parks, but really, that's been a running theme for years now. Johnson High School is nearby. Some of the street names seem to fit. Maybe the Sidewalks of New York thing just means it is near a path?
Sorry to hear this happened to you.

Sorry to hear this secretrose. That's gotta suck. I wonder if the Pavilion has a camera that caught the break-in on your car. So sorry it ruined your day and your hunt. Best of luck with the repairs. Hope your insurance covers most of it.

Oh that is just terrible Rose...awful greedy selfish people. God please hold them accountable and teach them your ways as we try and move on with life.

Well...sadly had to look at clues, but I had a Smash and Grab on my SUV yesterday at the Como Lakeside Pavilion. I had most of my valuables on me when I ran to the restroom under building for about 4 minutes. It was around 3:45 pm, lots of people walking and parking their cars and not secluded. Someone smashed my window and grabbed my purse with, medicine, clues, makeup and assorted items in a bigger, hidden bag in back. I had it so one could barely see it behind the dark glass, but someone smashed the window and grabbed it. Than I had to make and fill out police, insurance claims after finding a auto store with plastic for window so I could drive my long drive home to the southern burbs. Now I found out it is 8 days to get it repaired. I am rather upset. I will not go on the freeway or take a chance hunting with plastic on a window. This thief cost me the medallion hunt, the repair is costly even with insurance and most of all made me even think twice about ever hunting again. Good grief this was one of the safer spots at Como Park with all the activity and not secluded at all and plenty of daytime sun. I have been to much more shady spots in past years! I am so frustrated and angry!!! Looks like I will miss the rehash also unless glass repair shops can slip me in. Anyways...I would be digging at Central today if this had not happened to my car. I hope one of you finds it also! Goodluck!
1973 the medallion was found in Phalen by 4 college students who traveled up from Mankato. One of them was named Zielinski (hero being Ukrainian president Zelensky)
