While the cache is outdoors and always accessible, the ideal times to stop by are from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesdays and Fridays and 7 to 9 p.m. Thursdays, when you can you can go inside to view this historic attraction's exhibits. (Admission is free.)
The cache is a plastic box hidden at ground level. It contains a log book, writing implements, various trinkets and toys, and a newspaper tearsheet.
This is one of four caches being placed in connection with an article about Chicagoland geocaching appearing June 19 and 20 in the various editions of the Lerner Newspapers. Since our papers are not online, we thought we would place some caches containing copies so that cachers who aren't regular readers could see the story. Please leave the article behind for others to read. We'd love to see your comments on it.
