10^th Annual Winter Medallion Hunt Rules

Find the Medallion somewhere in St Peter, and you will win $1,000 in St. Peter Chamber Bucks!

There are a few simple rules to remember when searching for the St. Peter Winter Medallion:

- The Medallion is located within the St. Peter city limits and on public property.

- Do NOT dig in the soil.

- Please respect other people’s property and DO NOT search for the Medallion on private property.

- Please DO NOT climb over any fences when looking for the Medallion. The Medallion is NOT located in a restricted area.

Clues will be listed on the following websites:

The first clue was posted online at 6:01 p.m. Friday, January 24 and a new clue will pop up at 6:01 p.m. each day until the medallion is found. We will post the news as soon as the medallion is turned in.

If you find the Medallion, you can turn it in at the St. Peter Area Chamber of Commerce office located at 101 S. Front Street in St. Peter. If you find the Medallion outside of the normal Chamber of Commerce business hours, please call Ed at 507-766-4560 so, as a courtesy to all Medallion hunters, we can report via the Chamber Facebook Page that it has been found. An e-mail also will go immediately to the St. Peter Herald and Mankato Free Press.

Special Thank You to the St. Peter Area Tourism & Visitors Bureau for donating the St. Peter Chamber Bucks for the Medallion Hunt once again this year!

If you thought the past clues led you astray,
Try to read yesterdays in a different way.
