Reader News: WinterFest Medallion Hunt winner

Standing in front of the Spicer Fire Department are Sabrina Lere, Spicer Commercial Club president and WinterFest chair, left, Chris Adams of Willmar, WinterFest Medallion Hunt winner, and Claire Verch, One Main Financial medallion hunt sponsor. Adams said the first clue for the Medallion Hunt made him think of the flag pole at the fire department. It was in the bell near the flag. Adams said his daughter wants to go see a production of “Disney On Ice Frozen” in Minneapolis, so that is what they will do with some of the $500 winnings.
