2026 Big Lake Finders

Congratulations to Stephanie, Vivian, Rose, and Warren Maxson on finding the medallion. It was wonderful to see a family working together as a team to solve the clues and complete the hunt.  Unfortunately, they did not have a Spud Fest button, so they received the $50 non-button prize.

2026 Big Lake Location

The Spud Fest Medallion was discovered at Kellerwood Park!  It was on the ground leaning on the backside of this tree (picture below).

Walk or run or drive or bike,
get on out and take a hike.
After a while if you give it your best
you can sit right down and take a rest.
Look around and you may find
something fishy right behind.
So go on out and look around
among the blues and green and brown.

It's still out there
it's not been found.
If you have time to spare
start to search Common ground.
There's still time, take a quest.
On a lark head to the park.
Look around and give it your best.
You're getting close, on that I'd bet.
Look on off towards the sunset.
