August 2020 Medallion Hunt War Room Medallion Hunt

First Stanza:

*Last hunt I received messages on how tough the hunt was from some Medallion Hunt War Roomers- so as an ode and push to them I figured let’s try something here since I just saw the tube hunt and a lightbulb went off, so this hunt was a new design for me, a rapid hunt that gives away lots of clues in a short span. Once the park is known, it is a very visual hunt of your surroundings with just a few streets given away during this quest.*
*FiN -Fishing in the Neighborhood program, sign by fishing dock* the internet search engine Google.com will lead you to Gervais Mill if you search what is Fin. It did not mean “finish”. Blues refers to the Bluegills in the pond, also on the same sign.

Second Stanza:

*During these times of 2020 it is important to stay healthy, safe and loving. I personally have been in a tougher time as of late and wanted some love out there. I frequented this park before I would pick up my kids for a few years, and the Rector bench has the word love graffitied on it, so I decided this was the place!

Third Stanza:

Lands far and near - Nod to Canada- Little Canada to be exact. Various houses border Gervais Mill Park/Pond. Get off your couch.
