Geocache Description:

Come and visit Lucy, the famous Margate Elephant!


Built in 1881, Lucy is six stories tall and has weathered many adversities over the years, most recently damage to her howdah. Lucy received National Historic Site status in 1976. Tours of Lucy are available every 1/2 hour for a modest fee. (Lucy is closed to tours from January - March.)

Please read (and follow) these instructions carefully:

In order to verify your visit to Lucy and claim your "smilie," please e-mail us the correct answers to the following questions: (Some questions assume you took the tour. Others can be answered just by having visited the site. One does not need to purchase a ticket and take the tour in order to answer enough questions for the find.

An actual visit to Lucy's physical location in Margate, New Jersey is a required element of this cache.)

The Questions:

  1. Describe Lucy's pedicure.
  2. What is the name of the park Lucy resides in?
  3. How many windows are visible on Lucy's exterior?
  4. What is displayed in the showcase in Lucy's main room over her(?) right rear leg? (Hint: It is large and red.)
  5. How many steps from the doorway up to Lucy's main room?
  6. How does one enter Lucy? (Be specific)

Additional Requirement: A photo attached to your log that shows you (or your party) and a recognizable portion of Lucy.

Thanks for visiting Lucy! I hope you enjoyed your visit as much as I enjoyed mine!
