The hunt returned to Maplewood's Wakefield park. Roland and Roger Taylor, Ronald Juneau, and Mary Cloutier found the puck after the final 11th clue on Friday afternoon.
After severe damage following the 1971 hunt, Maplewood requested that the medallion not be placed there in the future. Once again, severe damage ensued, and the rumor is that someone from the Pioneer Press had to go to Maplewood city hall with a checkbook to cover the damages this time around.
This hunt had the fewest number of clues ever written for a Winter Carnival hunt with 11. If a 12th clue was ever written, no record of it exists.
This site is dedicated to the St. Paul Pioneer Press Medallion Hunt, a main attraction of the annual St. Paul Winter Carnival that takes place every year in the smaller of the Twin Cities. In addition, we're striving to be the best festival medallion hunting resource on the web!
