Geocache Description:


This cache in honor of my sweet little guy Mattie, who left for the Rainbow Bridge last summer. Initial items in the cache are all dog related (lots of toys for dogs!), so bring your furry child along with you on the hunt! Don't worry, there are things for humans in there too!

The cache is located in Banksville Park, a little park just off the Greentree exit of 279. The park closes at 11pm and is of course dog friendly - just be sure they are on a leash and you bring along your poopie bags. There is an unfinished tennis court there that is fenced in, which is a perfect place to let them off the leashes to run. Also there are some wooded trails behind the courts and ball field, and this is where you'll be searching for the cache itself. The area was not overgrown in the least when we dropped the cache, but I wonder what it is going to look like in the summer!



There is a $10 gift certificate to PetSmart in the cache for the first to find. Be sure to rehide the cache well when you leave! I've also included a Travel Bug (TB1CZEG) attached to a keychain bearing Mattie's picture - can't wait to see how far the little guy goes!

Please be careful! It seems that the muggle teenagers nearby have found a place to drink and smash the remains of their parties. WATCH FOR GLASS!!!! I have cleaned up as much as I can, but each time I go back, I find more and more glass broken. The cache is not disturbed, thank Gods, but they continue to leave their waste behind.

Keep an eye on little paws. Carry a bag, and please take out what you can. Mattie would appreciate it!
