One would doff (remove) a cap and genuflect in a church or place of worship, possibly in front of a USA flag or cemetery? A guarantor could be a savings and loan bank or a credit union.

So I would still guess that the medallion is hidden in a hat. I still think the dog eared map is telling us it is in a park you might find in an old Treasure Hunter's Guide, so in St. Paul. To genuflect is to "bend the knee" which I think is just saying it is on the ground.

Clue #3 2020

Here is the actual clue:

Clue #3
This hunt’s guarantor settles that forevermore
Noodlers treasure noggins; keep that in mind.
So doff your warm cap, study dog-eared map
And genuflect in the presence of the find.

Clue #2
Though the times be quite peachy, we do so beseech ye,
To venture out of doors for a romp
As you traipse through the snow, your medallions aglow,
Careful of what flora you stomp

Clue #1
There’s just enough snow and temperatures low
To rouse us from our snoozing
And hide the MacGuffin, no we ain’t bluffin,
In a park of our very own choosing.

The Vikings are done, the Twins yet begun
What excuse do you have to dawdle?
Gather your kin, prepare for the win
And be sure to bring a hot bottle

This sounds a lot like the "What's it in?" clue and I believe the answer is a "Love Your Melon" hat. I also suspect that a dog eared map refers to an old Treasure Hunter's guide, meaning it is in St. Paul and in one of the parks that has a map in the book.

My first draft though it doesn't seem too promising:

This hunt’s guarantor settles that forevermore

Noodlers keep that in mind.

So genuflect, doff  the cap; study your dog-eared map

And in the presence of warm noggins treasure find.
