2002 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

Submitted by Casey Trauer on

Yes, the medallion has been found, but there's still lots to talk about. Feel the need for more than virtual discussion? Then join the Re-Hash Bash, Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon at Merriam Park in St. Paul.

I also like how in the paper they state "All contest rules and decisions are final" I guess i'll buy the paper and clip, just to be sure.

Yea, I was over at Cherokee kicking around... found a brand new knit sweater... of course I thought it was nothing and had to go through it anyway... regardless, I told piano wire man that I had beat him out there which was fun to tease him about regardless...

Wow Heather Krazy found a pair of new tennis shoes in a plastic bag at Cherokee today too. They were buried in the snow inside a plastic bag. She almost had a coronary.

Krazy - SO anyway, is it possible to get a straight answer from a lady these days?

WW- I think that these clues are either the usual early clues - at a park in St. Paul and possibly on a hill OR there is a lot of information in them and we are correct in our analyzations of them.

Have we decided where the medallions' best park candidates are?Where are most people flocking towards?I'm guessing Highland?

krazy huntress

maybe all these things are clues pointing to the clues pointing to the medallion. Running shoes and a sweater. Shopping cart. Kinda like SuperMarket Sweep. But not running to buy groceries until we find the medallion. Then we will fill our carts up with the Cub Foods gift cert. Maybe somebody is sending us on a wild goose chase. MMMmmmm.. goose sounds good. Goose jerky.
