18th Annual Cooler Crew Pre-Dig Gig
Saturday January 23, 2016
Joseph's Grill (in the banquet room)
140 South Wabasha Street
Saint Paul, MN 55107
 

 

I had originally planned to start my Mock Hunt in March, but then the Wild Announced there Gold Puck hunt that would be going on all month (worth a little over $5,000). So instead I bumped it back to April and it will now begin on Friday, April 8th. Clues will come out at 6pm daily (12 clues altogether) and Clue 1 will be released at Joseph's Grill in St. Paul (on Wabasha and Plato). Consequently we'll plan to meet there around 5:30pm.

Clues will be posted daily to this site and the Cooler Crew Facebook page. I may post it to the PP site if it seems anyone is on there. There will be a $10 registration fee which entitles the finder to win the entire prize (usually somewhere between $200 and $500). Otherwise an unregistered hunter can still find it and win $100. The medallion will be hidden in a Saint Paul park. It will not be hidden in water, up a tree, under ground, on a steep slope, in anything electrical, indoors, or anywhere else that might cause you to ask "Is looking here really a good idea?) We'll also exclude the locations excluded by the PP hunt such as Golf Courses and the Como Zoo and Conservatory.

Hunters can pay their $10 at the kickoff event or they can pay the money via Paypal to allisonwondrland@yahoo.com If neither of those options work for you, let me know and we can make other arrangements. The winner must turn in the medallion to collect their prize. The hunt will continue until the medallion is found, though I reserve the right to suspend the hunt in the case of extraordinary circumstances.
