Clue explanations at the Seekers Forums

A family-friendly treasure hunt for Twin Cities dogs — and their humans!
August 23-26, 2024

Together we raised $100 in donations for Twin Cities Pet Rescue!
Finding stable and loving forever homes for neglected dogs and cats.

For Nellie

Scott County

Bring your fur-child
On a walk through the Wild
For a picnic on the hill—
You could go Loco
While combing for Coco
Where whatever can happen will.

Anoka County

The man with the 'stache
Looks over this cache
At a woodsy watering station—
Advance on a vector
To meet the director
Of Parks and Recreation.

Hennepin County

Leap like a cricket
Into the Thicket—
To extract a syrupy treat;
Embark on a tour
To cast your lure—
Angle for something sweet!

Dakota County

Head through the Woods
To sniff out the goods
On a trail of suitable size;
To find this Long Dog,
Flip over a log—
And claim the Dakota prize!

Ramsey County

Conduct this fifth quest
Near an empty nest
That looks out over the water.
It’s a wonderful day
To frolic and play;
Hot—and getting hotter!

Carver County

No need for dismay,
Looking every which way,
To wander by guess and by gosh;
Just jam on down
To Paisley Town—
And bring your pup for a Wash!

Washington County

Rise and report
To a woody fort
And find this satchel of loot;
For our last mini-game,
Begin with a name
On the sole of a sheriff’s boot!

Final Clue

It's a four-legged race
To the old fireplace
At Minnehaha Park;
From there, you'll see
What's left of a tree—
BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK!!!
