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.

Danielle - I like your sand idea. I am going with the beach at Phalen. Here is my take take: Time and Tide = East Shore Drive Arcade = Fun Slide = don't know this one (maybe Wheee! as in Wheelock Pkwy - ha ha) Phalen has a rec center Stay away from the woods = could be Forest and Sherwood streets or the golf course In and on the air = KSTP tower visible from Park, I think There are two parkways bordering the Phalen - maybe this is the repeat in the clues Just thought I'd put my ideas out there. Everyone has a park in mind but they don't substantiate why they have picked that park.

Lisa's, Mom has them... Emmy and Hannah's Mom, that is. You can pick one up at The Re-Hash Bash for the measily pittance of one buck.

BC isn't a "St. Paul Park" it is a Ramsey Co. park. In the past, when it has been at BC the clues have stated it is in Ramsey County - not specifically at a "St. Paul Park". I liked BC alot until I thought about this.

Why do I feel stupid I don't think I have ever seen her name before. I will be sure to find her at the Bash though as long as it isn't found at C*M* (I can't even bring myself to say the name)

Sister...

St. Paul Parks and Rec is in charge of the rec center area and perhaps more as well

Meeting up at 11:00, and then I've got to do a drive-by. I'll be in the truck and there's only room for one, and that spot's taken for awhile.

Then, I don't know what will happen. Things are heating up and the schedule can literally change from one second to the next. There are not more quarantees. We go where the action is.

I think the clues will remain vague until the weekend promo hoopla is over...after all, why would these sponsors want to be there after the medallion is found?

I guess if they hide it in a piece of coal or something that would hide it even if the snow melts it could be a small park and they have done a good job of keeping people spread out.

Matt

And suppose the clue writer purposely wrote the clues to NOT include any info in the bible? (I have one, too)

TTHG how long did it take you to put that book together? I caught my first look at it last night and now I have to go buy one...

Sisiter- i was saying earlier that maybe its hidden in a Match box that is buried in the sand? I don't see why it couldn't be burried- I don't think that is destroying. The sand where kids play- ya know how its under the swings and slides? what do you think?

I care slim, I just don't have anything to offer on that theory. Too many small obscure parks that I don't know of. I'm also happily in denial and still thinking about Phalen. ;-p

You're probably correct Matt. Thats why we have to come out with a secret version of the book.

yeah, that's what I'm sayin,it wouldn't be in the bible (i.e. the fool clue). Lisa, I already know that! I am all for this team thing!!!

you got it, matt. any old fool around these parts is gonna have a guide. i said it earlier. there's a lot of parks that steve touched on that don't have maps and such in the guide. my money's on one of those. and if you didn't slog, steve, we need maps of those for next year's edition! :)
