Pekin Marigold Festival Medallion Hunt Sponsored by Jimmy John's ®

Clue # 5 Alec Baldwin, a King George Desi Arnaz and even Luke Perry. Names with something in common; Research well and do not tarry Look high and low very carefully. Things standing out, meant to be seen. So many natural surroundings, Part of a broken sea of green.

I've said for years that this should be hard. I know you may think I'm wrong. Step by step and bit by bit, The journey often seems long. Stand together like a dynamic duo. Move up or straight ahead. Rules are important to hunters. A warning plus so much that's said.

Clue #3 Oh the air is crisp and clear, As I look to my left and right. While things look so similar, In truth, they are different sights. There are a number of ways to work this. Allow your mind to be free. Accumulation and determination; Places for them and places for me.

Clue #2 To write clues you must have two faces, One quiet and one on the go. You can think in a matrix or just be simple, While sending every hunter to and fro. You might need a compass to guide you. Don't get lost in your attempt. Watch for things that might make you itch, And come out of this all unkempt.

Clue # 1 We arrive as we should at the beginning. The time has come to go find your prize. Hidden with care and caution; Not so easy for prying eyes. As always I'll guide you with various colors. What they are may not always be. I'll defer eventual reveals. Yet a discerning detective might actually see.

The first clue of the 2018 Pepsi Marigold Medallion Hunt will be released at noon on Monday, August 27th.  The clues will be available on this website, and on the Pekin Marigold Festival Facebook page. Full rules and other information will be posted soon.
