Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

This cache is at the 577 Foundation in Perrysburg, Oh. I would have loved to make this a traditional cache, but due to the nature of facility it isn't possible.
The 577 Foundation was established by Virginia Stranahan who bought this property from Edward Drummond Libbey (as in Libby glass). This 12 acre estate, which is on the Maumee River, was not your typical multi-millionaire's estate. While other estates were being divided up to make housing, this land was set aside "to keep a corner of Perrysburg green"
This estate contains numerous buildings, including a Geodesic Biodome, pottery barn, small public reading room where you can buy used books cheap or drop off books, a place to dig fossils, an 1804 log cabin, a summer maze, river walk nature trail and much more.
This is all open to the public, FREE, 9am to 5 pm, 7 days a week. For more information call 419-872-0305 or 419-874-4174 for educational program information.

To log this find, go to the coordinates and find the sign that tells you what conservancy manages this wonderful place. Email me the name of this organization.
Come out and enjoy these beautiful grounds and gardens.
