Before we even got a chance to really even talk about it, Mr. Jay Behrends (@bigjay56007) found the 2026 Big Freeze Medallion!! 
His super-sleuthing took him out to St. Nicholas Park on South Shore Drive where he surveyed the landscape for what didn't belong... and it paid off, big time!
Along with bragging rights on what might just be the fastest find ever (2 hours after the 1st clue was posted), Jay also received a gift basket of goodies from:
Southern Sota Landscaping @sotalandscaping
Albert Lea Convention and Visitors Bureau @albertleacvb
and the Chamber...
Congratulations, Jay! We hope the basket helps you make it through the rest of the Big Freeze week.
Can't wait to see everyone out and about this weekend!
