2019 Stillwater Lumberjack Days Medallion Hunt

The birthplace of Minnesota is where you stand ****(Stillwater was the meeting place to establish the Minnesota Territory in 1848, giving way to the birthplace of Minnesota as a state in 1858).
And this weekend you may hear a favorite or new band. ***** (Go downtown to the Lumberjack Day's Main Stage and hear some great music!)
Know your history, read your books, *****(I make reference to some historical authors, characters,figures, and Latin words)
for this year’s Hunt has facts tucked in all the nooks. ****(Each part of the clue has something meaningful, as well as rhyming)

The river is high, so the medallion stays away *****(The St. Croix River was still flooded, so I didn't hide the medallion in any of the parks along the river such as Lowell, or Bridgeview, or on any public Stillwater property near the river)
And on a bright sunny day you can bale some hay *****(A nod to the name of the neighborhood Settlers Glen, as many early settlers needed to bale hay for their animals to eat.)
Not the bales used for the downhill derby at two, *****(They used over 400 bales of hay for the Downhill Derby which was located on 2nd Street in Stillwater, meaning it wasn't hidden at either Pioneer Park on 2nd Street, or the public lands around there.)
Keep heading west via horse and buggy as this literary girl once would do. *****(West of 2nd Street eliminates several other parks when looking at a bird's eye view of the map of Stillwater. And the literary girl in horse and buggy was MN author Laura Ingalls Wilder)

This pastor gave a lake its name from Latin words truth and head *****(Pastor Boutwell lived on Boutwell Rd in northwestern Stillwater and is famous for naming Lake Itasca by combining two Latin words "truth" and "head".
Let’s hope you read Minnesota historical books before you went to bed. *****(If you didn't know Latin, or Pastor Boutwell, it would help by reading books about Minnesota history. And the bed reference is to the medallion being hidden in a neighborhood)
Laura Ingalls Wilder would have played here with grace *****(Laura Ingalls Wilder is the beloved Minnesota author most well known for "Little House on the Prairie" - referencing Prairie Park in Settlers Glen)
So go find a stone that is quite out of place.*****(The medallion was taped to a large (hand-sized) river rock, next to a tree trunk on the outer skirts of the park. There were no other rocks around, or any reason why a rock would be there)

We’ve made it to the final day of celebrating Lumberjacks and Stillwater *****(Sunday is the last day of Stillwater Lumberjacks every year, and the last day of the hunt)
Now this hunt will go no farther. *****(In one past year we extended the hunt by a day to give people another chance, but found that wasn't liked by all, so we would end the hunt by 6pm on Sunday if no one had found it)
Little House on the Prairie was a fan favorite show *****(Referencing Prairie Park)
So off to that park and under a rock you must go. *****(Go to Prairie Park and look under a rock - trying to be as transparent as possible here).
