Geocache Description:

The cache is located on the top of the hill, called FUDOKI-NO-OKA park. There is KORIYAMA City Museum of Art. Koriyama city is one of the biggest city in Fukushima Prefecture, and has a population of over three hundred thousand. Surprisingly, KORIYAMA city has any geocaches now.( March 31, 2011) So, I hide this one. Please come here with your pen.

As you know, after the Great Earthquake in East Japan, Atomic Reactors in Fukushima are in trouble, now. And, our brave men are doing recovery effort of the Atomic Reactors. So many people who live near the atomic power plant in Okuma town in Fukushima prefecture, must leave their home town for the risk of radiation. I hope that the area will be completely free of anything harmful as soon as possible. Also, I hope you, geocachers to come to Fukushima prefecture. Fukushima is the region richly endowed with nature. There are many beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, and sea. Also, there are so many hot springs and delicious foods. Please come to Fukushima ,and cheer the people in Fukushima up.

I am the owner of over one hundred geocaches in Northeastern Japan called TOHOKU region. (Fukushima, Miyagi, Akita, Iwate, Yamagata, and Aomori.) After the disaster in March 11, 2011, I decided to make a donation for the disaster victims of the Great East Japan Earthquake of one thousand yen per one visitor who found one of them. And now, the number of visitors who found them was over one thousand (accurately 1042 visitors) in a time between the day of the disaster and September 11, 2013. So, I made a donation of JPY 60,000 in October 2011, JPY 50,000 in December 2011, JPY20,000 in March 2012, JPY110,000 in July 2012, JPY190,000 in October 2012, JPY190,000 in January 2013, JPY70,000 in April 2013, JY300,000 in August 2013 and JY52,000 in October 2013. (Total amount is JY1,042,000). I appreciate very much that the geocachers visiteded and found my caches in TOHOKU region. I hope many geocachers to come and visit my geocaches in Northeastern Japan in the future.

私は東北地方に100個以上のキャッシュを設置しています。2011年3月11日に発生した東日本大震災発生後、私は震災地域のために訪問者1人あたり千円の寄付をすることにしました。そして震災以降2年6ヶ月間で私のキャッシュへの訪問者数(発見)は千人を超えて延1042人となりました。2011年10月、12月、2012年3月、7月、10月、2013年1月、4月、8月、10月にあわせて1,042,000円を寄付しました。東北地方を訪問してくれた皆さんに感謝申し上げます。これからも東北地方を訪問しキャッシュハントを楽しんでください。
