First 3 clues for the Pine River Summerfest Medallion Hunt Clues

Pine River Summerfest Medallion Hunt clues:

Clue #1

The medallion is now hidden for peering eyes to find.

It is waiting on public ground where many feet have tread.

Clue #2

Don't look up, you may miss your chance to see,

The Medallion is waiting in the western shade of a tree.

Clue #3

Water has always been a friend,

But is it from a fountain or from a river's bend?

The annual Pine River Summerfest Medallion Hunt begins today, Monday, June 16. 

The medallion is hidden within the city limits of Pine River on public property and no digging is needed to find it. The medallion is wrapped in orange foil and is a Summerfest button with a number on it.  

The Chamber will publish clues daily and businesses may post them. If the finder's button is registered at the Information Center by today, June 16, they will be eligible for a $100 Chamber gift certificate. If the button is not registered and they find it, they will receive a $50 Chamber gift certificate. Buttons may be registered yet today at the Information Center or the number may be called in at  218-587-4000 . 

Pine River Duck Races canceled this week

The Pine River Duck Races have been cancelled this week because of continuing high water at the Pine River dam. 

Look for them to begin next week during Summerfest on Friday, June 27, with registration at 1:30 p.m. and the first race beginning at 2 p.m.   

Also, there will be a public gathering from 5-7:30 p.m. at the Pine River Depot this evening, Wednesday, June 18, to show and discuss plans for the renovation of the actual Pine River Dam in Pine River.  

The public is invited to stop by to furnish input and gain a perspective on the project, which is slated to happen in the future.
