this is not a new cache, it was a multi cache but the first stage was muggled so we changed it to a traditional.

This is an easy cache located in Brighton Heights Park. The Park includes a Play Area, Pavillion, Jack Stack Swimming Pool, Basketball Court, and Six Ball Fields. Shoey's Father played ball here as a teen and the first Ball Field is named after a player who was killed by a baseball hit in his temple(John Merry). That's the only history we know about the Park. the cache container is a 50 cal ammo can in a traditional hide. There is also a camera - please take a picture of yourself with the cache- while the film lasts. This is our first hide (with harder ones to come). If you have any comments please feel free to let us know.

August 10 by penguinmdh (317 found) Google tried hard to keep us from this cache. The first set of directions sent us down a closed road; the second set of directions sent us across the missing Davis Street bridge. Third time is a charm. We found it just as the sky darkened, the wind started blowing and thunder began cracking. No time to take a picture or otherwise dally. We made a quick dash back to the car and just avoided the downpour. TNLN SL Thanks for the cache! [view this log]
