Recent Clues: 
 


 

Clue #1 Congrats to the finder, to all a reminder 
To hunt hard from first to last clues 
Medallion I is history. Now a new mystery 
Begins -- strap on your hunting shoes 

To some its demented, for all unprecedented 
But hunters’ thirst must be quenched 
Tell sister and brother we’ve hidden another 
In a park where a body can be benched 

Our 2nd prize? Don’t laugh -- 10-thou cut in half 
So get out there even if it’s snowy 
And as a special bonus -- some might say an onus -- 
A meal with our own Clueless Joey 

Good hunting to you, let this be the first clue 
Think of a woodsy retreat 
It won’t be so hard if you channel the bard 
You’ll get warm and smell pretty sweet
Clue #2 If you\'re thinking big you\'re sure to dig 
Near flora with growing pain 
Winter or summer is never a bummer 
A menagerie of fun wild or tame
Clue #3 Success on the third clue will never do 
We had to stash a second 
Round you go if you seek to know 
Where swatters of orbs are beckoned
Clue #4: A walk in the park can be a lark 
If cell phones are left at home 
Heed the siren of your desirin\' 
And do not revolt against this poem
Clue #5 Over hill and dale hit the trail 
With a handy locating device 
Fulfill your wishes like loaves and fishes 
And put your victory on ice
Clue #6 A famous singer and a diamond dinger 
Might put you oh so close to the spot 
With the whites of your eyes you should look for the prize 
Within this convenient plot
Clue #7 Don\'t turn up your noses at the city of roses 
The home of the park that you seek 
It\'s just north of town so come on down 
Our hunt is not for the meek
Clue #8 Don\'t go mental just head for Central 
Lexington Avenue will show you the way 
Your spirits won\'t sag when you see the big flag 
Into the trees you want to stray

They gave Jake a ticket for being parked on the victoria ball feilds side last night. I'd park on the street...

I am sure they will do what they did last night.... drive around, tell people over the loudspeaker that the park is closed, and then start handing out tickets. I doubt that it will be like the first few nights where they handled people individually and told them to leave.

From over at Mom's Site:

"we just spoke with the hot choc police and they told us the park would be open all night provided there were no problems. the ones we talked to thought the hunt is pretty cool."

What a disappointing last two days. Sick followed by swamped at work is not a good mix. I haven't read a single post in two days.

Thanks, done. See you out there! I dreamt this morning that I found it. I'm having a premonition that my dream was a premonition. :eyeroll:

Wow.. I hope that is right, green. I have been hearing mixed reports from people who have talked to the police. If those police are actually at the park and they say that they are keeping it open, I would take their word.

It did seem suspicious hearing that they were going to enforce the rules and yet they were handing out hot chocolate.

Hey if anyone needs a spot to park I worked in a daycare in the Prince Of Peace church for 5 years. There is a path from there parking lot going right down to the park and they will not care if you park there.

Anyone in the Western WI area still thinking about heading over to Central? I may have an "in" and do not want to drive the junker of a car that's been loaned to me.

Thanks guys. Can't get out until 9:00 or so. I'm not sure it's worth our time to go to the paper. The line will be pretty long by then. I should have dragged them out earlier in the hunt.

The BIG flag is off Lexington at the Veterans Memorial, next to the band shell and the rocket slide. The smaller flag is behind the American Legion building near some ball fields and a walk down from the Arboretum.

I'm trying to catch up and don't have time to slog the 900 posts I missed over the last day and a half. :eek:

Okay, so is everyone in consensus that it's near the BIG flag by the Veterans Memorial? Or is it near the smaller flag behind the American Legion building? Just curious where people will be awaiting the next clue...

I am going to wear my lucky 'Coolerheads Prevail!' shirt. I think I should also bring my 'one of a kind' Cooler Crew watch. I need all of the luck I can get :wink:

 Hopefully one of us finds it, and we can get a picture with the shirt, the new finder, Brass Monkey and Jake... Would be cooler!

One thought that I had as far as the whites of your eyes is that it means the lights in Central. They are kind of an "i" shape, and the dot for the "i" is white. Maybe it means there is a light nearby the medallion location, to illuminate it.
