2023 MEDALLION HUNT RULES:

All ages are eligible. City of Mound employees, City Councilmembers and their immediate families are not eligible. Festival board members, staff and their immediate families are also not eligible due to potential involvement in clue distribution. Be respectful of property and have a grand time!

Look high - look low, but do not dig. No shovels needed here.
Nor climb above the earthen realm, so you can search with little fear.
A park, a road, a lakeside beach; where ever could I rest?
Public land is all in play for hunting - be my guest.
Respect all private property - and do not enter there.
You do not need to anyway, to find me in my lay.
From east to west, from north to south, both high and low in Mound.

Good luck to you and all who search exploring all around.
