Because of this board I think they are making it harder because it is so easy for us all to share tips and ideas.

I think it would be easier to give it away in a small park than a big one.

Will -- this is probably less than 1% of all hunters in here, though!

Well I learned something tonight. I have been registered at this site for so long, that I wasn't aware all that was going on now with the new registrations.

Now I'll know the next time. Thanks everyone!

that really bites otherwise I would think it was at phalen but, think not just because they close it. But thats just my opinion

Last year I was at como park and they don't close really and we seemed to get kicked out of there to and then we knew that it wasn't there.

click on all messages and scroll through....unless you jsut want one that is fairly recent you can go to previous messages....thats the only way i know how to

Thu, 01/27/2000 - 7:04 PM Permalink
Kiwi

That's why I think if the park closes or you get kicked out the medallion isn't there.

digby, you can. Just look at the URL. That last number is in direct relation to the message number

Parks with statues= Capital grounds, Cathedral Square, Lyton, Nathan Hale, Rice, and I assume Como.

Also, Dawson Park is at Pleasant Ave. and Vista.

I got some very valuable stuff today from my work (Parks and Rec). Includes info on the history and naming of different parks, what's in 'em, maps, and surrounding streets.

Does anyone know if there is a Macbeth street in st Paul

yes it is by johnson pkwy and what is it with this statue thing?

Thu, 01/27/2000 - 7:09 PM Permalink

well, please share with us I personally think its at rice park but no one else shares that opinion

Isn't there some kind of friends of the parks web site? I swear I remember something like that.

I doubt it would be at Rice. I agree with the theory that they wouldn't want to mix the hunt with other winter carnival events.
