Geocache Description:

Small metal tube camoed up a bit. Bring a writing stick. You will find this with little trouble, but muggles are almost always about.

One of the first buildings on the old Wake Forest College campus was a great size for students to race their buggies around. The fast track was of course on the inside line, but the buggies wheels and hub would regularly scuff the corner of the building and eventually began to damage the buildings corner stones. The administration allowed the racing but not the damage, so they placed four stones on the corners of the building thus preventing further damage by the young buggy boys. The building later burnt to the ground and was rebuilt, but this time with a brick exterior. Interestingly enough, the four stones were left in their original places throughout the reconstruction and are still their to this day. You can still tell where the buggy wheels mad indentions into the stones after repeated contact.
