Gnometown has three wonderful parks, The Swimming Pool Park, Vetran's Park and Riverside, in which one does the Winterfest Medallion hide?
Clue#3
If you prefer to spar with Old Man Winter on a snowmobile seat, snow shoes or cross-country skis, then head south to Vetran's Park if you please.
Clue#4
Look neither high or low, but under the snow, there you will find me, and when you do, I will salute you.
Clue #5
The Stars and Stripes proudly wave high upon me, look at my base below in the snow and you will find $100 for thee, this I know.
