Geocache Description:

A CACHING SERIES THAT COVERS ALL THE CAPE

14 towns will take you to 15th.




This is one of 14 caches placed along Cape Cod – one on each town.

Here you don’t only get a smiley but you also get one number for the final town cache which will be released once all 14 are published. Make sure you take note of that number and its position because you will need it to go to the FINAL one. Although some of the numbers may be easy to “guess”, we encourage you to do them all before going for the 15th town to keep up the fun. They will be posted in a random order and will be added to a Bookmark listing as they are being published. So stay tuned, your town may be next.

Cape Cod has many different facets. Each town on the Cape has something unique to offer in the way of natural beauty, history, the arts and in entertainment.

A little bit of history of MASPEE

Mashpee's history is firmly planted in its Native American background. In 1660, a seemingly civic-minded citizen, Richard Bourne, bought a tract of land and promptly set it aside for Native Americans. Known as the Mashpee Plantation, this was the first Reservation in the United States. It was Bourne's intent that this land be set aside for Native Americans to be their home "forever". What a short time forever is. The settlers decided that the Native Americans needed to learn about their god and become "civilized" and so on May 28, 1870 Mashpee was founded as a town.
