Medallion Hunt Clues
Clue #1:

The SNOWBOWL is coming, and so are the clues, So much to do outside, no excuse for the blues. To the winner goes $500! Be sure your buttons to buy. The City Park on 153rd, the prize is yours if you try.

 

Clue #2

This is the 3rd hunt, the others were cold.
Everyone can search, the young and the old.
$500! What a grand prize, think SUNRISE,
what a feast for your eyes.
You'll know you're near,
when the aspens are clear.

 

Clue #3

The base of a tree is as close as you'll get,
 when you find it, you'll never forget.
You can see your tree,
When you stand on the sixth tee.
Clue #4

This area in the park is seldom used,
One may even say it is thick,     
two streets come together not far away,
beneath the snow , the mice  do play.
FOUND!!
