Geocache Description:

Short two stage multi involving a micro at the final. Located in Dorchester Community Park. Should be an easy find. Room for only the log. Please bring your own pen or pencil.

Congratulations to Brendah on her first FTF and 100th cache.
A great attempt by the Four Fishers for being 2nd to find.
Well Done to Yukondave for using his bicycle and being 3rd.

This is a two stage multi. The posted coordinates lead you to stage 1 which is a cenotaph with some info you need to read and then do a bit of easy math to obtain the coordinates of the final which is a short walk away.

Lots of parking nearby. This can be a heavy traffic area so park in the parking area and keep an eye for the muggles.

Once at the cenotaph find the branch number of the local Royal Canadian Legion. From the branch number subtract 300. This will give you the decimal figure for the north latitude. From the branch number subtract 72 to obtain the westerly decimal figure for the longitude. Now take a short walk and you will come to the final in very short order.

Take some time, relax and think. "Lest we forget".

This cenotaph was originally placed in Dorchester Union Cemetery, located not far south of this location and was moved to this location as the park was developed. You can do a multi-stage geocache within the cemetery grounds. Oh, by the way, the park you are currently visiting was previously the grounds of the Donnybrook Fair, which relocated to the east of Dorchester. I just thought I would add a local history section for your educational benefit.
