Each year, a medallion about the size of your palm is hidden somewhere in Hopkins during the festival. The person who finds it first earns a $300 cash prize.
Clues to finding the medallion will begin appearing Wednesday, July 16, 2025. The clues will be posted on the website and social media at 8:00 am each day.

The Golden Raspberry will be hidden on public property within the Hopkins city limits.

It will be found outdoors.
It will be in an open area, not buried or hidden.
