L Frank: Looks like the cache and the trackables were stolen by GSE_Anonymous. I'm sure his mother is proud. Sorry everyone, this one is gone forever.

Geocache Description:


This park is located in the parking lot of a big-box hardware store on Gannon Drive in Festus. The Gannon Drive Park is a covered picnic table protected by 2 guard rails and is fully handicap accessible. The park is easily accessible from I-55. It would be best to park on the South side next to the rail if possible.

The cache is a 3.5" X 3" X 1.75" Lock-N-Lock box in an easily accessible location at the park. Theoretically, this cache is available 24/7. The store has merchandise on each side of the park, so please use common sense when visiting after store hours.

The Rules to the Coin Exchange are simple. Take a coin, leave a coin. If you want to leave more than you take, this is permitted. Do not take more than you leave. This will ensure that the cache will never get empty. Coins and Geocoins ONLY please. This small container will not hold much and coins are thin, allowing for a large variety.

Muggles may be plentiful, depending on the time of day, due to the fact that the park is surrounded by many businesses. These businesses include grocery stores, hotels, sit-down and fast food restaurants, and gas stations. Note: We recently discovered that this park serves as a 9:00am shuttle bus stop for a local CASINO. It would be disastrous for the cache contents if the gamblers found it!

We suggest that, upon your arrival, you first sit down at the picnic table and observe the surroundings. When the coast is clear, grab the cache and return to the picnic table. The more stealth you use will ensure the longevity of this cache. Please replace the cache back far enough so that it is not visible.
