Belle Plaine St. Patrick’s Day Medallion Hunt 2025 Follow Up
Well, another Shamrock Medallion hunt is in the books.
On Tuesday evening, March 4th, shortly after the second clue was released, none other than Jeremy Heitkamp and Steven Beckmann found the Shamrock Medallion in a black glove next to one of the targets in the Archery Park.
When asked what led this duo to the Archery Park to find the medallion, they do admit on the first clue they were concentrating on Hickory Park but found nothing. But when the 2nd clue came out, the term duallys referred to a truck and get to the top, they thought they had to go up hill to find it.
When they read the clue Lady of Knock, they thought Knock was on archery term, then it started to make more sense. When you get to the Archery Park you have to go up hill to get there. The clue Ten, twenty, thirty, forty were the ranges of the targets in the park.
The clue “The product of Love and War”, Venus is the Goddess of Love and Mars is the God of War and folklore says that Cupid is the son of Venus and Mars. Cupid is known for carrying a bow and shooting arrows. A big reference to the Archery Park.
When they read the clues, nice looking bunch and meeting in the middle, they thought it was a reference to a bulls eye. Once they got to the Archery Park, it all fit.
They didn’t figure this out, but there were a few solar power terms in the clue. The power of the sun, sunshine, superman, bask in the glory. If you’re in the Archery Park and you go all the way across the park and up hill, on the field behind the Park is a huge solar farm. The reference to Google Earth, if you go to Google Earth, you can see the Archery Park and the Solar Farm near by.
Again, congratulations to Jeremy and Steven, aka the Jordan Boys, for a job well done. When asked if they like the nickname The Jordan Boys they said absolutely, its something they’re very proud of.
Next hunt is in early July. Good luck to all searchers.
