Geocache Description:


The "Peanuts" Gang

THE SERIES:

This series, YAGM (You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown), is dedicated to Charles M. Schulz and his "Peanuts" comic strip. There are twelve caches in the series, each named for one of the characters in the comic.

You do not have to find one to find another - each is an independent hide. There are no puzzles to solve or questions to answer. Each cache is a micro and is a pretty simple grab - some are easier than others. In general, be stealthy and watch out for muggles. The difficulty level, if higher, is usually due to muggle activity. Always bring your own writing utensil. And, as always, ENJOY!

The caches in this series (in no particular geographic order) are:

Snoopy - GC13QMJ
Schroeder - GC13QNP
Charlie Brown - GC13QMP
Peppermint Patty - GC13QNT
Woodstock - GC13QMW

THE CHARACTER:

Marcie

This cache is dedicated to Marcie.

Marcie is Peppermint Patty's best friend. From the moment they met at summer camp, Marcie has called Peppermint Patty "Sir" out of admiration and misguided manners. An unlikely pair, they seem to have nothing in common yet that is what makes their friendship so genuine. Marcie is the smartest of the Peanuts gang, but also the most naive. She's always willing to help out her friend with school work and she's not above sharing test answers or calling her on the phone to remind her of homework assignments. There is an innocence to Marcie and Peppermint Patty is her protector. Marcie is also completely inept when it comes to sports, yet they still let her play on the baseball team. If Marcie and Peppermint Patty ever have a falling out it's likely to be over Charlie Brown, who they both secretly love. - From The Official Peanuts Website

Did You know:

  • She apparently is under a great deal of pressure from her parents to excel in school, and in a story in 1990 sought refuge from her demanding parents at Charlie Brown's house and fell asleep on his couch.
  • Marcie bears a strong resemblance to tennis star Billie Jean King, a fact reinforced when Peppermint Patty, in a moment of exasperation, refers to Marcie's "Billie Jean King glasses". Also, the sport of tennis was an occasional theme in the Peanuts strip and King was a close personal friend of Schulz.


THE CACHE:

You are looking for a silver bison tube hidden away. Cover it back up well after you replace it in its hiding spot.
