The Freedom Fest Medallion Hunt Has Begun, And We’ve Got Your Clues
The 3rd Annual Freedom Festival Medallion Hunt just kicked off Monday, and already there's plenty of eager Cedar Rapidians searching high, low, everywhere to find it, seeking their chance at the $500 Hy-Vee giftcard, and the big reveal of the new 2015 Freedom Fest logo. Here's the clues you need.
In case you're new to the Medallion Hunt, here's how it works. Somewhere within the Cedar Rapids Metro area, on public land, there is a 4" disc with the unreleased 2015 Freedom Fest logo on it. Over the course of 10 days, we give you 10 clues to help you on your search. Whoever finds it and brings it to the Freedom Festival office will win a $500 HyVee giftcard, and get to see the logo first.
As the hunt ends, the full Freedom Festival schedule will be revealed, which we know already kicks off with the Insane Inflatable 5k presented by GoDaddy and ends with the Thomas Dostal Developers Freedom Festival Concert on the 4th. We're excited for the annual festival, so let's get to those clues. Let's see if you can crack the code. It's pretty tough.

When they host a bird
And grass a help
When the bird is the word. - 5

To make a find. - 6

Be they dead, or simply done
Figure out how this matters

Clue #10 - Final Clue
Let's review as we end our quest
And throw in clues that help you best
Sledding is a thrilling time
In a park where you need a sign
Electricity sure comes in handy
When keeping dry is more than dandy
On a street with a past century label
Whose end is dead, and near a table
History is set in stone nearby
Kind of forgotten, we don't know why
The prize is in a Native-named park
With hills and a shelter that set it apart.
