2016 St. Cloud Granite City Days Hunt

Submitted by Joe Medallion (not verified) on Fri, 02/19/2016 - 1:02 PM

St. Cloud’s Granite City Days festival will include a medallion hunt based on daily clues that take players to city parks.

Clues will be published at 6 a.m. each morning at www.sctimes.com and on the Local page of the Times.

The 4½-inch granite medallion is hidden on public property in one of St. Cloud’s 91 parks.

No climbing or digging is required. On the back of the medallion are instructions for calling to alert organizers that it has been found.

The prize for finding the medallion is $360, and will be given to the finder during Optimist Family Fun Day on Sunday at Lake George.
