This cache is hidden at Veterans Memorial Park in the Village of
Grafton. I have visited this spot a few times during the last
couple of months looking for just the right place for another urban
cache. My goal was to place a cache that attracts people to this
memorial while keeping the hide concealed in a tasteful manner.
This hide is available in winter, winter friendly and can be hunted
during Park hours of 6:00am to 10:00pm. Muggles and traffic are
heavy all the time so be patient!
After finding the cache, sign the log and tightly roll small
enough to insert log into cap and then the cap into the tube.
Please do not stuff the log into the tube and jam the cap on. It
will wreck the log and make it difficult for the next cacher to
remove. Carefully replace as found - Thank you!
Once your done with the cache, travel 25 yards south of ground
zero and marvel at this classic example of American Engineering and
Manufacturing that helped the Allied Forces win World War II. This
75mm Pack Howitzer was built in 1941 which was the same year that
Japan attacked Pearl Harbor (December 7, 1941) and shortly there
after Nazi Germany declared war on the United States. 2 1/2 years
would pass before the United States, Great Brittan and other Allied
Forces would launch an offensive against the Axis Powers. June
6th 1944, “D Day” marked the beginning of
this offensive as thousands of Allied Troops stormed the beaches of
Normandy while the Airborne dropped behind enemy lines along the
French countryside. Please take a moment and pay gratitude to all
that have served and those who gave their lives for this country
and the freedoms it provides to all.
Congratulations to furryhermit for the First
