It's time for the Medallion Hunt! The first clue will appear on PioneerPlanet just after midnight Saturday, Jan. 22. Come back here to compare notes with other treasure seekers, but be certain you read the rules on the Planet's Winter Carnival page.

ITS DEFINETELY AT CONWAY LOTS OF BS TO SIFT THROUGH COULD BE ANYWHERE AT CONWAY
I agree with PIE that tonight's clue will either cut the park in half, or categorize it in some other way (like its near a tree or something). Only the very last clue tries to
Uhh, Conway is not a park. it said up there it has to have "park" in the name. no where at Conway does it say "park". There are four or five signs around the
grounds that say "Conaway recreation center"... not just on the building. I was there tonight and i thought almost every clue fit too... but also if you're at the capitol
grounds almost just as many clues fit there too. I was talking to a woman at conway who said she called information and there was no listing for "Conway park"
I'm sure it would look really bad for the Pioneer Press if they said they were making it harder this year and someone found it on one of the first days. They probably
Is that really true about them not hiding it until the last couple days? Don't they think SOMEONE is going to be where they would hide it?!?!? I mean, no one's
I think it will thin out for the next hour or two as people get tired or cold and decide to go home for a while until the next clue gives them a better idea.
Kevin . . . go back and read the past postings. Conway, is a park, as described by their own definition. Go back and read the posts. Please don't ask these authors
From past experience....and knowledge of how things go and where it's found every year. It is very likely put out during a snow storm. In years that there has been
very little snow cover or it has melted off with the January thaw, the medallion has been found in chunks of dirt and leaves to blend in with the surroundings. It's

sais and i quote it is not at a place that does not end in park look at the top of the pioneer planet page just trying to inform fellow hunters but like i said
take it for what its worth they also did put the word really after it. we will see tonoc hopefully they will say the park as they always have. good luck all i
am off to work. see ya in the am if its not found......
Terry, when I was leaving, there was a portable hotdog stand, they had 12 packs of soda piled on top. And that was at 5:00. Good way to make some quick, easy
money. However, I was wondering about the licensing they need to do this. They could be selling . . . . . for all we know!!! LOL!!!
I would almost pay $ to be out watching that nutty scene from inside a warm house...what a great view! Unfortunatly you won't find ten grand unless you are within
the madness...unless you found it already and are buzy laughing at everyone out there! That would be funny!
Well I do blowhard and here's how it's going to work!
Tonights clue will tell wether it's east or west of the main north south path. That's it, nothing more. Simple.
I told you, has beens and wannabees, where it was five days ago!!!! I also told you that it won't be found until wed. night or thurs. day morn.... Now why doesn't
everybody just go home and sh$t, shave, and SHOWER, take along rest until tommorrow night, and I wiil hang out at the park and make sure everything is safe and
secure!!!!! How bout it? Now get your tired, smelly, pathetic asses home and take care of yourselves.
I LOVE YA,,, now GET OUTA HERE ya KNucleheads!!!
To my followers:....I will find it and when I do we're going to MEXICO for three weeks!!!!!!!!!! When we get there we'll raise a toast to all of you non-believers and
we'll say hey "how's it going" while you guys are still walking around in a stupor at highland and como diggin your lives away.
I Will be there in a little while. My followers can meet me at the corner of Wilson & Pederson (by the street sign) so we can make our plan of attack. Anyone in our
group will (if we find it )get free roundtrip airfare to one of five Mexican Sites (Ixtapa, Cancun, Cozumel, Puerta Vallarta & 1more)so let's team up and kick some
medallion Booty!
10:15 at the corner of Wilson & Peterson. (just yell for PIE)

I just wanted to say hi Everyone. I'll be back around 11:30 to check the new clue and then probably out to Conway. It seems odd though, what they posted at the
top. Doesn't it sound like they're trying to tell us to get the hell out of conway? Why else would they post such a message, and end it saying "really"? I wouldn't be
surprised if tonight's clue just totally threw conway out of the running. But as of now I'm sticking by it.
SEe ya'll at 11:30!!!!
(Deleted item originally posted by Hiderof Medals on 09:16pm Feb 2, 1999 CST)
guess under the parks listed on friends of the park it is, I called them earlier and they said they are officially conway rec center, used to be called conway
heights park but not anymore, does that help at all?
Mushie, was there around 1-4 green lincoln navigator parked on southwest of park near library sign Will go again after I take my son to the childrens farm. First
have to open office My secretary has the day off tomorrow. Should arrive around 10 or so

be specific.

grounds almost just as many clues fit there too. I was talking to a woman at conway who said she called information and there was no listing for "Conway park"
anywhere in MN. IM sooo confused...
I'm sure it would look really bad for the Pioneer Press if they said they were making it harder this year and someone found it on one of the first days. They probably
want to make sure that doesn't happen.
Is that really true about them not hiding it until the last couple days? Don't they think SOMEONE is going to be where they would hide it?!?!? I mean, no one's
sleeping- are they!???!?!??!?!
I need a homing device to be hooked up to that medallion.
Parking is just crazy, all the strrets are lined, it's just basically where ever your car can fit- it'll work!
Theres going to be a lot of PO'd hunters with pics and shovels if it's not at Conway!
I think it will thin out for the next hour or two as people get tired or cold and decide to go home for a while until the next clue gives them a better idea.
Kevin . . . go back and read the past postings. Conway, is a park, as described by their own definition. Go back and read the posts. Please don't ask these authors
to keep repeating themselves.
From past experience....and knowledge of how things go and where it's found every year. It is very likely put out during a snow storm. In years that there has been
very little snow cover or it has melted off with the January thaw, the medallion has been found in chunks of dirt and leaves to blend in with the surroundings. It's
almost always at or very near ground level.
Jackie...Who knows for sure except for the 'ol PP. The last two years my wife and I have been right on top of it, the medallion that is, with no luck. Maybe this
year...
Jackie: are you at stcolumba.org now?
TO JACKIE I THINK THE WORD IS MUM AMONG THE FEW HIDERS OF TREASURE.
Jackie, Capitalize on this circus start selling hot chocolate and Weenies, you could make a killing...
ITS ON THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF CONWAY
It would be so easy to hide the medallion now - just pretend you're out there digging with everyone else - the medallion is not that big and it's wrapped tight in
something white
If it wasn't at Conway, that would be one MAMMOTH coincidence.
Not at my e-mail address, that's at school. At home now, looking at the insanity out my window!

am off to work. see ya in the am if its not found......
Jackie...are you looking out frm Ruth, Wilson or Conway?
I was thinking more of setting up carnival games, it feels like the State Fair with so many people in one area!
Kevin beyer there is a sign at Conway that says Conway Parks & recreation. It is located on the corner of Ruth and Wilson.
I'm looking out from Wilson, I live in the apts. across the street from the library.
I understand that there is someone out there in a trailer selling hot dogs already. The carnival games sound good!
of course i'd like to find the damn thing....but i'm ready for this whole hoopla to be over.
A FAIR OK! LET THE GAMES BEGIN.
Yeah, I saw the hot dog man on my way home from digging, bright fella- that's for sure!
Terry, when I was leaving, there was a portable hotdog stand, they had 12 packs of soda piled on top. And that was at 5:00. Good way to make some quick, easy
money. However, I was wondering about the licensing they need to do this. They could be selling . . . . . for all we know!!! LOL!!!
Good luck everyone! I'm off to work. I guess the only way I'll get any money now is to earn it!
I hope the person selling hotdogs has brats too! And that they do not run out!
I wonder if we can take this as an example that ESP doesn't exist?
I would almost pay $ to be out watching that nutty scene from inside a warm house...what a great view! Unfortunatly you won't find ten grand unless you are within

Yeah the wiener man is smarter than the mini-donut man I waited 1/2 hour hour for at the sloppy slide...Im hungry
Hey Donut Man... I looked for you and my donut(haha) today at Conway but did not see you... I see you had no luck too.... :)
Well I do blowhard and here's how it's going to work!

Is Conway followed by the word park??
To the people that can see Conway from their home.......
Are the ballpark lights on?
Im wondering if I should take a lamp.
Pie, would you please delete post #18358. It is a double post. Thanks for your help!!! :)
Sethmon - It never hurts to have a lamp or light or something. We've found a snake light works great wrapped around your neck.
