Clues are given out each week that lead to the location of a special horseshoe hidden somewhere on "public property" within the City of Savage boundaries. Whoever finds the horseshoe and has a 2016 Dan Patch Days button wins $100. The lucky winner also gets to keep the commemorative horseshoe.
2016 Dan Patch Days buttons are available at Savage City Hall, Razor's Edge Barber Shop, and the Library.
Rules for the horseshoe hunt have changed recently, so please read carefully:
Each Friday, clues for the horseshoe hunt will be available here by 9 p.m. on this web site (www.danpatch.com). This is the ONLYplace the clues will be available online. Clues will also be published in the Saturday print edition of the Savage Pacer newspaper.
To maintain the interest and integrity of the horseshoe hunt, the following members, spouses and minor children are NOT eligible to participate in the hunt: Dan Patch Historical Society board members, Dan Patch Days Inc. committee members and Savage Pacer newspaper employees. Also, there will not be any back-to-back winners.
**Anyone who thinks they've found Dan's shoe, please contact us and Please leave a contact number, we will follow up ASAP.
