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.

Got to call my son---he went to his house to get his button and we were meeting after I got off work at 10pm; he doesn't know yet--and now I have to break it to him; we do this hunt every year together.
I think what part of the problem is that those who hunt the medallion have a really big passion for it. They want to be challenged. The person or persons who write the clues may not, or probably do not have the same passion for the medallion hunt as us hunters would. They may not realize what we want in our medallion hunt. They may not put the same effort into writing the clues as we do in noodling them, going out and digging, etc.
my mother took the clues at face value and took me to merrium yesterday. She was convinced that it was on the diamond and she was right. I guess we just didn't kick the right snow pile. I thought the clues would be more than they were. Ah, well see you all next year. P.S. my kids were off school for teacher planning today.
Well, got to go break the news to my son, and head for work. I had my co-workers at my work involved and now it is over.....it has been so fun. I have no regrets other than it was found to darn soon. and I liked spending time with my kids out on the hunt.
I hope the winter carnival is a flop this year, the med hunt is what "sparks" the peoples interest. Nobody will show because you have fools at pioneerplanet NO WONDER THEY HAVE TO KNOCK 50% OFF THE PRICE OF THEIR PAPER. what a newspaperatrocity it is.
The CAMO CRUE will be back in 2003 hoping for a few feet of snow and sub-zero conditions. That is how it should be after all ! Thank you to the PIONEERPRESS for continuing the hunt for another winter.
I don't appreciate jack. They didn't take into account the fact that we don't have snow. The hider is now at the top of my "people that are too dumb too breed list".
agree broomball stick, years back the clues were good, i will never forget looking at the state capitol last time, that was one time it went to the last day that i can remember, maybe it's the snow this year, either way the clue writers change too often and they need to hire someone or something because these people may be able to edit and write articals but they sure can't write clues
I am thinking about writing into pioneer press watercooler to ask if we can get someone to monitor this site for next year. Some of the comments last night from Mr. Newsss and today towards the founders and the clue writers, are totally uncalled for and very disrespectful. I wouldn't be surprised if they canceled the medallion hunt forever based on some of the swearing, inappropriate comments, put downs, etc that have been displayed in here, especially over the past 24 hours. And it's not comforting and nice for the rest of us to see jealousy, complaints, etc in here.
We are soo lucky we have a medallion hunt and that people donate that money. At least we can appreciate the hunt, the fun and it's all about how WE hunt, not whether we win or lose.

Liquor Lady- It's Carny here. I almost had that party with you. I went to Merriam on Wed. with 2 others. There was only 1 other guy there besides us. We dug around those 2 fields for a couple of hours. We must have damn near tripped on it!! Oh well, maybe next year.
Destiny's Hunt- I agree with you that rude comments are uncalled for...... and I don't mean to single out Sprydoggy's comments. There have been many others...... however, the best way to deal with this is just to ignore them. :)
DESTINY's HUNT Ever her of free speech, people like you make me sick. First thing you say is lets pass a law because I don't like what I hear lets shut up the people because I don't like it. YOUR AN ANTI1STAMENDMENTATROCITY
the difference between some of the folks and mr. news, is that its actually mr. news's goal to incite trouble and raise tensions in here. mike must have booted him 20 times in the last 3 days.

No I was under the impression it was found in nothing. Just laying in the snow

I thought the clues would be more than they were. Ah, well see you all next year. P.S. my kids were off school for teacher planning today.
My husband was there and he said it was attached to a potato chip bag. I heard Pringles here. Anyone know for sure?
My daughter was off by 10:30 this morning. Finals week.
TD-I can edit it in, email me w/info that you want changed

Hey Scribe! Too bad we didn't meet up in the park, but looking forward to tonight!
I want the clue writer to fall off a cliff.
ok hopefully we will get up there, won't be until after ten though cuz I have to work.
gotta find a sitter too.
Not sure if we will be upstairs or downstairs.
Also, we were not in Merriam when it was found.
