2013 Mankato State University Medallion Hunt

Submitted by Administrator on

This year, the IMPACT Homecoming Committee is adding a medallion hunt to the campus’s Homecoming Week festivities. This event is open to all students; you do not need to be part of a competition team to participate.

The first medallion hunt clue will be announced at the Homecoming Kick Off event Monday, September 23, 2013. Clues will also be posted daily in Homecoming Week Showcase in the Centennial Student Union and on the Homecoming facebook page:  www.facebook.com/mnsuhomecoming.

Once the medallion is found, it will be announced in both locations.

Rules:

  • The medallion is NOT located in any buildings.
  • The medallion is NOT located in any construction areas.
  • The medallion is NOT located somewhere on campus that you couldn’t normally get to.
  • NO digging or climbing will be necessary to find the medallion.
  • Open to Minnesota State University, Mankato students only.

Prize Package:

The finder of the medallion hunt will be awarded with an “Ultimate Fan Package” that will include items donated by different groups on campus including:

If a group of multiple students find the medallion, neither the Student Activities Office nor the IMPACT Homecoming Committee is responsible for how the “Ultimate Fan Package” is divided between winners.

It’s surprising that the medallion hasn’t been found by this day and hour; 
Start walking in the direction of the clock tower.
Keep your eyes peeled as you march,
Slow your pace when you reach the arch.

One by one, check near the bricks,
A time commitment only a medallion finder will fix.
This is quite a task as you may have wondered,
Since this location houses more than 500.
