This cache was hidden as part of the One Degree of Separation Geocaching Project. This is a seed cache, meaning you are meant to take one of the ready made micro caches inside of it and hide it yourself. No trading is required. Just come take a cache and hide it using the proper title format and utilizing the seed cache template that you will find at the project website or at the bottom of this page. There is no obligation to participate. Just sign the log if that's as far as you want to go.....
Irondale Park is a city owned and maintained baseball park with a rich history.
This cache is part of the One Degree of Separation project started at GeoWoodstock IV in Dallas TX where I was given this cache by Snoogans. It got lost in my barn and just now found, so here it is, five years late!
This project was launched to unite the entire geocaching continuum together at one point using the "Small World Theory" as it pertains to geocaching.
If even half of the nearly 13,000 caches originally released on 5/26/2006 get placed as a geocache, no geocacher in the entire world (with even 1 find) should be able to go much beyond 3 degrees of separation from every other geocacher in the world, but the REAL object of this project is to bring that number down to 1 degree for as many geocachers as possible.
One Degree of Separation is a project that has been taking shape and GROWING for nearly 5 years. It's a variation of the "Small World" concept that was proposed in the early 20th century. Many people are familiar with the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game, but few know just how far back the idea goes.

Many other goals will be posted as the project grows, but here are a few:
#1 To have an active ODS cache hidden on ALL 7 continents.
#2 To have an ODS cache hidden in all 50 states.
#3 To have an ODS cache hidden in a number of foreign countries, by milestone, 10 countries at a time. First milestone 10 then 20 and so on.
#4 To have an ODS cache hidden in every county in Texas.
More goals will be posted on the ODS website....
Thank you for participating in what is sure to be a noteworthy point in geocaching history.
