Medallion Hunt Rules

1. Search but do not destroy or damage any property. The City of Chanhassen reserves the right to terminate the hunt if property becomes damaged. The medallion will not be hidden under ground; nor will it be hidden at a height requiring special equipment to find it. A shovel may be useful if it is buried in the snow, but a metal detector is useless as the medallion is acrylic.
2. The Chanhassen Library has resources that may help you solve some of the clues.
3. The medallion must be found and the prize claimed by 4:30 pm on Monday, February 8 at Chanhassen City Hall.
4. Employees of the City of Chanhassen and immediate family members are not eligible to win.
