I don't think it will be found until after the 30th anyways

that is usually the case. I usually waste my 1st week of vacation. I have to put in for whole weeks and I usually take the whole 1st week and then after the hunt, can't force myself to go back after it's found and end up taking the whole 2nd week too.

Hooefully a 9th or 10th clue hunt. Just for sake of having those deserving finding it.

Thats why I don't understand why more people don't look for this thing! They're telling you where $10.000 is, and some people still won't get off their lazy a$$es and go get it!

9 clues work for me. I should have had it on #9 in 2001 if it wasn't for Cathi Hogan who was next to me!

I wonder if we could get a permit to put up a big heated tent in the park.....charge admission? beer? food? oh geez...I can't be in charge of this I got a hunt to do....

 

but geez...why dont the vendors come out during the hunt?

I was thinking the same thing.....

Imagine how much you could make selling hot soup or running a heating tent.

If there is the old one was probly destroyed.

If I'm correct, they auctioned off the old one.

They only got something like $100 when they did.

mrmnmikey, I'm just posting info in the "Invitational" thread that I think might be of interest to my friends in the Cooler Crew, info such as Karl Karlson's retirement and that there's a new medallion this year.

If you choose not to find my info credible, then that's fine.

There was a hot dog stand out at Como in 2003 after clue 11. Gross ass soggy bun hog dogs, but I didn't want to leave so I ended up buying three and forcing em down.

anybody know how to use the googlegroup. There is someone there that wants to join us, and I don't know how to steer her over here exactly. Her name is Katte. Can some one help her out?

Mr. Mikey.  Heard from the son-in-law and he said they probably won't be hiring until Spring, but he wants you to fill out an application.  He's dropping one off here and I'll get it to you somehow.  Maybe someone will quit or something!  You could probably collect unemployment that long anyway.  :)  Spruce up that resume!

Oh!  And don't forget to use me as a reference!  Use my full name please, Oldtimer, not OT.  ;)   Seriously though, I'll give you my full name.

I'm not sure if I'll be making that, but if I don't I'll just mail it to you.  If I don't show up there, you can e-gram me here with it.
