CLUE #1:
We're on year #2 with Medallion Hunt clues
It's Sauk Rapids River Days time!
You'll need every clue to know what to do
So be listening for the next rhyme.
CLUE #2:
The Medallion Hunt is all about looking
In places you’d never consider.
Look up, down, and all around;
Not every prize sparkles like glitter!
​
CLUE #3:
North, South, East, or West
You’ll think there are millions of choices.
When the place that you seek can seem rather unique
Where the birdies will hear all your voices.
​
CLUE #4:
If the rain is a pain, don’t give up the search
There are still many leaves to turn over
The medallion is snuggled like a bug in a rug
Yet hard to find – like a 4-leaf clover.
​
CLUE #5:
If your searching continues with bewildered dismay,
And your anxiety is over the moon,
Don’t fear! Here’s another clue for today,
Try to think like a squirrel or raccoon!
​
CLUE #6:
If you're out walking Fido, you might see a sign
That tells you to leash and clean up
You're now getting closer to where you should be
So thank the stars and your pup!
​
CLUE #7:
Once you park, take a dog leg left.
You won’t have to walk very far.
Be sure to notice a sign with a 3
And you’ll know that you’re now up to par.
CLUE #8:
There’s a bent tree in front of the tee.
Go to the tree and left face.
The forest ahead is something to dread;
The mosquitoes are from outer space!
​
THE MEDALLION WAS FOUND AFTER CLUE #8!
CLUE #9:
It’s dark and it’s dreary, you’re now in the thick.
A sturdy big tree you must find.
Which one you might ask? There’s still quite a task.
So look for the rough bark kind.
CLUE #10:
Keep your head up, it’s not on the ground!
You’re getting so close to the win!
Look high as the eyes of Kevin Garnett.
The mysterious “holder” blends in.
CLUE #11:
If Mayhew Creek Park is not where you’re at,
Then hurry on over and try
To find what is nestled in the bark of a tree
Oh, what 500 dollars could buy!!
