This cache is on Route 92 at the West edge of Plant City, the Winter Strawberry Capital of the World. It should be a quick park-n-grab. It's big enough to hold geocoins and small travel bugs. Please carefully reseal the pouch before replacing.
The nearby establishment is a well-known landmark in Plant City. They harvest 3,000,000 pounds of strawberries every year! The elderly founder passed away recently in 2008 and, by his request, hundreds showed up at the church wearing strawberry red shirts!
First-to-Find gets a blinky American flag pin.
Update: On 1 Aug 08, Senator Barack Obama visited the nearby establishment. Owner Jim Meeks told him former President Bush, President George W. Bush, former Gov. Jeb Bush, and former Rep. Mike Bilirakis had all visited and sampled the strawberry shortcake and they had all won their elections! Unfortunately, strawberries are out of season... so he bought 50 strawberry milkshakes for the staff and press corps! All told, he dropped $124.37 for a bag of oranges, a crate of peaches and the 50 milkshakes.
Update: Not to be outdone, Senator John McCain also visited this campaign battleground on 23 Oct 08. He had one of the first strawberry shortcakes of the season. His visit leaves the presidency up for grabs!
Update: November - Evidently the FIRST candidate to visit wins!
