To assist in navigation, I've included the 5 stages of the adventure lab as waypoints in this listing.

Markham Village is the City of Markham's largest heritage conservation district. The district is made up of three distinct neighbourhoods: Vinegar Hill, the original village core that emerged around the post office and mills; Markham Village, the industrial heart of the community where the success of the Speight Wagon Co. and other industries earned the village the name "the Birmingham of Ontario"; and Mount Joy, the home of Pennsylvania German Mennonite families. The rich history of the Village is reflected in the many heritage buildings that are still standing today.

Once the Adventure Lab is completed, review the information provided in all five journal entries. The cache can be found at N43 A[H-D].[I-G] H D and W079 F[J-E].[D-B] G B
