Once again the medallion hunt has begun
A time for families to have some fun
Together you will find this little treasure
And in your hearts, it will last forever

So, grab the family
And take a walk
Look around
Every tree and rock

There is a new design
For this little treasure
If you find it
You can measure

Thank you to Cy’s
For their donation
So, I have been hidden downtown
In a great location

Did you know? Chaska was officially incorporated as
a village in 1871

Clue 2

On summer days
Without a cloud
One can hear
The cheer of a crowd

They have come together
To spend their time
Playing the great
American pastime

But hidden I am not
Where they can see
For a medallion hunt
Is what it be

Did you know what was in the news on June 7, 1877?

Clue 3

Joy in the world
Should never end
And there is one great joy
Man’s best friend

You take them for walks
To the dog park to play
Giving this family member
A wonderful day

So as your walking
Your pet so dear
Take a closer look
For I could be here

Where are you on April 9, 1970?

Clue 4

Up and down
And all around
Is where these kids
Will be found

They race around
Without a rest
To see in the end
Who is the best

As I watch the kids circle
Around in a lap
I believe it’s a Pump track
As a matter of fact

This area was in the news on October 29, 2018

Clue 5

In a park
Is where I’ll be found
But there is so many
Choices around

So, where I am hidden
I have to say
It’s a lot quieter now
Than it was back in the day

It is quiet and serene
Many days a week
So, stroll on through
To find what you seek

Take a history tour
And look really close
For I will be sitting
Right under your nose

Do you know what was happening in Chaska on June 23, 1960?

Clue 6

As Chaska has grown
This place has not
There are many adults
Who remember this spot

As old trees grow
Reaching towards the sky
Sit down have a picnic
Watch the people walk by

When your done with lunch
Have a look and see
There are many hidden places
Where I could be

Do you know anything about 1937? Referenced in 2015

Clue 7

And as this medallion hunt
Comes to an end
I will tell you exactly where I lay
My friend

Near the Directions
Along the side
Is a hidden place
Where you will find me

But don’t discourage
And look all around
In the plants
Is where I’ll be found
