The Eagle Virtual Medallion Hunt
Sponsored by: The Wichita Eagle and Suzuki of Wichita.

Win a new car!


The Medallion Hunt is back, so get ready to test your sleuthing skills. This year’s event is a virtual hunt with daily clues leading to a description of a Wichita location. There’s no physical medallion to uncover, so the sky is truly the limit for the secret location. Each participant must register at www.kansas.com or in person at Suzuki of Wichita’s east or west locations. Participants are allowed only one guess each – with rewards for being the first to guess correctly – so you’ll need to decide just how sure you are before you submit your answer. All contestants who submit the correct location will be entered into a drawing for a new car from Suzuki of Wichita. Contest begins May 8 with clues in The Wichita Eagle, Kansas.com and KSN and will end on Wednesday, May 13. The grand prize winner will be drawn during the Festival’s Block Party on May 15 at 8:00 pm. Look in The Wichita Eagle or on Kansas.com for complete contest details!
