The Ox Cart Days Medallion Hunt will begin Wednesday, August 15 with the first clue read at 4:45 p.m. at the Ice Cream Social at UMC. After the first clue is read, a new clue will come out daily at 2 p.m. in the Crookston Daily Times newspaper, on KROX Radio/KROXAM.com, and on Facebook until it is found.
Mark Ecklund has been the Medallion Hunt clue writer and coin hider for years. The medallion is a gold coin (pictured below) about the size of a half-dollar that says 2018 Ox Cart Days on it. If you find it, bring it to the Crookston Times office or send them a message on Facebook to win a prize package of $200 cash and UMC swag. The Medallion Hunt is sponsored by the Crookston Daily Times and University of Minnesota Crookston Admissions Office.
