Battle Creek Picnic Pavillion -- Note location change due to lack of seating

Patrick McGovern's (upstairs this year)
225 7th St. W. (at Chestnut St.)

Join the Cooler Crew at Patrick McGovern's for the 8th Annual Pre-Dig Gig. We'll be upstairs at McGovern's this year instead of in the basement. Be there to party, celebrate the beginning of the hunt, and speculate about the first clue.

With all the luck we've had this past year, finding the flag in Indian Mounds, and sweeping the minbin mouse hunt, Coolerheads will prevail!!
