All i see is closed minds. Open them and you may find what park it is in. I havent heard any mention of this park in 3 days.

Its at Conway without a doubt. If it were at Highland, they would have said so by now, being that it is such a large park.

An addition to clue #1: Conway is full of signs saying "NO GOLFING" is that a clue that it is not a fairway or green?

Alison- I'm not sure if I'm with you. I don't think clue 3 is neccisarly that important. I don't think it's an adress either. I think it's just dumb, something no one would

ever get. One thing for sure, it doesn't specicfy WHERE the medalion is, #3 is to early for that.

If there is a clue to the cat in my name, it is definitely at Conway. Anybody see the sign at Ruth and Conway? (the cat head?)

What do you mean Conway is too small for the anniversary? Its not like they're going to have a party there. I think they like having it in a small park so they can be

as vague as possible about where it is and have people running all over town.

I'm sorry, but I think the Wood Row clue was clear as cake. You really need to brush up on the past few years clues and their meanings. If you do this you see how

the clue writer's logic works, and why trees in a line most likely meas Wood Row.

I'm guessing tonight's clue will pinpoint Conway, tomorrow will give us an idea of where at Conway, and clue 12 will be the "its right here you idiots!" clue. I think

my idea for Clue #3 is right, but even if it isn't, the bottom line is we don't know where at Conway to look anymore. Its pretty dug up now.

Everyone who thought Newell realized they were wrong. And its not at BC fir the same reason its not at Highland. The park is just too big and they would have

named it by now.

Sorry Chris, but one of the disadvantages of this forum is that it allows for chicanery--Newell is the favorite every year of a small group of people--This year's clues

fit until number six, so it was an easy sell, but as the game goes on, nobody's buying---Of course, it cold have been Newell but most of the people supporting it in the

Cooler were the same people as last year...

The Newell people are shaking like seaweed now. They were the ones who thought it would be made clear after clue #4. Now that they've wasted so much time

they are sitting at home resting, and crying, and probably feeing kinda dumb.
