This cache is located at Lake Hendricks Park in Riceville, Iowa.
The idea for Lake Hendricks Park first began in the autumn of 1951 when K.K. "Buck" Hendricks had asked a couple of friends to accompany him on a walk in "Hendricks Woods". During their walk, Buck expressed an interest in preserving the area for future generations.
During the period of 1958-60, the Howard County Conservation Board and the Mitchell County Conservation Board began planning the establishment of Lake Hendricks Park. The Army Corps of Engineers assisted with the design and specification of the dam. Local volunteers completed most of the construction of the lake bed.
Today Lake Hendricks Park is Howard County's largest and most popular park. This 234-acre park is one of the oldest in the county conservation board system.
