Going forward the next clues will come out daily at 6pm. They will be posted to the Allison Wonderland yahoo group at that time. They will also get cross posted to the Ableminds site and the Pioneer Press message boards, though possibly a little later.
As of last night the prize was up to $155 based on the number of registrations and donations taken in. One can still register for the hunt up through the release of the 4th clue. The cost is $10 to register and I anticipate the total prize will exceed $200. One can also hunt without registering, but then the prize is just $100. If you would still like to register, you can do so by Paypal to AllisonWondrland@yahoo.com or let me know you'd like to register and I can give you an address to send a check to.
There will be 12 clues, released one per day. The hunt will continue until the treasure is found. The medallion you're looking for is a disc that is white/clear in color, about 2 inches across and half an inch wide. It will not be hidden in or on water, up in a tree, underground, on the side of a cliff, inside anything electrical, inside a garbage can, or anywhere else that would make you ask yourself "Should I be doing this?" Once the treasure is found, call the phone number on the back right away, any time of day.
Clue#1
The hunt has begun, thus clue number one
Should hint at where the treasure hides
Best not to spill all, but let's say St. Paul
You can even find it in all your guides
Just look for some trees, not many of these
In any park so you're well on your way
To focus your vision, use some precision
Be counting from the start for the big pay
Clue #2
Some remedial math puts you on the path
Begin the equation by starting with a trinity
Count another two, then one more will do
Then put two and two together to mark the vicinity.
Clue #3
To be rude and abrupt, or even corrupt
Puts you on Santa's naughty list, not nice.
But this is the day you will find your way
If you can keep our vagueness on ice.
Clue #4
Stay true to your mark and look in a park
Where one can see land both low and high
Though it sounds funny, you’ll be in the money
If you lay bets mixed up and know why
Clue #5
It’s to the hider’s delight when the weather is white
As it keeps a buried treasure from view
But not all is on the ground, you should look up and around
And to the white add some red and some blue.
Clue #6
Rid of the fan, he ran and he ran.
There’s no doubt he was quite a talker
Mother Nature’s beau- the lawyers said so
Post finish, still serves a walker
Clue #7
Look and you can see most beautifully
A skyline with a splendiferous view
But that’s not enough for foes to rebuff
Play this clue right and you can score too.
Clue #8
Cheer up if you're lost or sensing exhaust
I promise there will still be more clues
Perform to your peak, and for what you seek
Watch for those who are playing the blues
Clue #9
No hunt for grandpa, get rid of the blah
This game is for those of a hip age like Reggie
He found the jewel hidden in Newell
So follow his lead and be a bit more edgy
Clue #10
A heritage to share will get you mostly there
As one should know what flows in one’s blood
And though it be punny to say it’s not sunny
Dig where the moon struck with a thud.
Clue # 11
On Indian grounds, and I don’t mean Mounds
Is the park that will take you to greater heights
There you’ll have to go and look through the snow
And soon you will find something that delights
The sign of Gemini you will have to spy
Keep asphalt never more than a few strides
Find just the right tree, it lines up you’ll see
And then you will conquer where it divides

There is still a spot in Swede Hollow that I wasn't able to completely check out that I really like, but there's a different park that may have taken top billing in my mind.
Clue #8
Cheer up if youÂ’re lost or sensing exhaust
I promise there will still be more clues
Perform to your peak, and for what you seek
Watch for those who are playing the blues

I was checking out Eileen Weida - the 64 bus line runs right past there, which is my best logical guess to the solution for clue 2... 64 also stops at an entrance for Swede Hollow too...
peak performance - anti freeze/outdoor wear
playing the blues? MM cafe? blues saloon?
j/k
I don't even know what his platform is or who is running against him...
Congratulations, Alex!! :litesmile:

alrighty then :confused:
and the whole grandpa / blah thing, I don't get
I'd love to see a good take on this clue
hmm...hip boots?
:wink:
I wish this would've narrowed things down a little more though.
yeah I have other ideas about a few clues that kind of narrow an area down, maybe I'm just not getting something huge in this clue
I can't do this hunt :frown:
yet...
I hate that I can't...
just no energy..
:smile:
joe
I hope this lasts until Wednesday morning so I can actually have a decent shot at looking for this without having to worry about work.
Everybody stay home for the next two days. :cool:
Edgcumbe would have to mean Walsh / Highland or even Hidden Falls, which I just don't see happening. Then again who am I to say.
Maybe it's hidden in Kellogg... I heard the clue writer spent many hours over there during the actual hunt this year... plenty of time to find clues and good hiding places :sillygrin:
I've only read the last 10 posts. I have a lot of catching up to do.
went out with Becks for awhile and saw Reg out there so we must be on to something if he's in this last clue.
anyone think it was put back in Newell?
don't know how ann bilanski fits there though other than Beaver Lake, Como, Swede/Bruce Vento. and part of Bruce Vento is NOT in the guides. Does Stillwater Ave go in to any parks?
