It's time for the Medallion Hunt! The first clue will appear on PioneerPlanet just after midnight Saturday, Jan. 22. Come back here to compare notes with other treasure seekers, but be certain you read the rules on the Planet's Winter Carnival page.

Rock, the hill on the corner of Fairview and Hewitt? N. W. corner? Kind of by the tennis courts across the street or opposite side of the park?

Bird - Since #7 was somewhat vague again (like #5 & #6) it's got to be at NP. They wouldn't wait until #8 to give the park away - they did that in #4

(NEW-WELL). Clue #7 is one of those "you gotta be there" clues. I'll be going out tomorrow AM. E-mail me if you have any other thoughts or want to go diggin

around 10-1030 in the AM.

No user inform…

Parking Lot - schmarking lot.... if you think I was serious, log out and go to bed. If you think I was kidding around and believe only those without clues enough to

find the thing are here.. then let's go for a beverage or two. What happened to all the Newell Park talk?? That's where we are thinkin'....

There doesn't seem to be many people out digging anywhere- but that's not unusual - it seems every year there are a couple of us out and then everyone gets it and

the place is a madhouse.

I think "the press" has a theme going here. they wanna show off the new development of the river front, jessie, and other historical sights of downtown...u can see it

in the clues; except for the "downhill" clue. I would like to hear how I'm wrong if someone would answer!!!

I think that clue #8 will be a good one - there's only 12 of them after all. I'm still hooked on Newell Park.
