This cache is one of a series of twenty-five caches placed for
the 2008 Susquehanna
Sojourn. The purpose of the Sojourn, sponsored by
the Alliance for the
Chesapeake Bay, is to call attention to the issues
facing the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries. We are happy that
you are on the Susquehanna River and hope you enjoy your
exploration. We'd love you to join the Susquehanna
River Trail Association whose goal is to increase
public access to the Susquehanna and to promote watershed
stewardship.
From June 15-21, 2008, the series is only available to
Sojourners. Each Sojourner is given a passport to be stamped by the
unique rubber stamps found in each cache. If, at the end of the
Sojourn, a Sojourner has at least 12 different stamps in his/her
passport, he/she is rewarded with a limited issue commemorative
coin.
On June 22nd, 2008, the series of caches becomes available to
all geocachers. You too are a "sojourner" and can "earn" a coin,
while they last. First get a passport, available at the Steuben County
Conference and Visitors Bureau in Corning or
the Chemung
County Chamber of Commerce in Elmira, which
you'll stamp with the unique rubber stamp found in each cache.
Collect 12 or more stamps in your passport to receive a Sojourn
coin.

instrumental in the Veterans Appreciation Day Events at this park
in early June.
It has boasts restrooms with showers, 24 electric and water sites,
two pavilions and rustic camping in open fields.
