Geocache Description:

Memorial Park is on Napier Road, the main eastern access to Palmerston North. The Park is well established with trees and is a nice area for families and picnicking.

This park was established as a memorial to those who perished in WWII. Drive in for parking and access to a children’s’ swimming pool, play area and to feed the ducks by the pond. Numerous outdoor tables and seating as well as a fixed BBQ are provided for family picnicking. The main gate is open from 8.00am to 6.00pm during winter and 8.00am to 9.00pm at other times. It is possible, however, to access the area by foot at any time of the day.

The coordinates provided above are for the public parking area but the cache coordinates are as follows:

S 40 degrees 20.abc
E 175 degrees 37.def

A short stroll in the park (10 minutes) will enable you to answer the questions which will complete the above coordinates. The waypoint coordinates for the questions are provided below if needed.

The check sum for your answers is 28

The cache is a 500 ml screw top container, big enough for trackables and other trades. A clip on the top of the cache allows for easy extraction from its hiding place. Please ensure its careful replacement.
