Forest Park Traditional Cache
*gln: ### ARCHIVING ABANDONED CACHE ###
Greetings,
Looks like our timing is off, and It’s time to say goodbye to this cache.
Since I haven't seen any maintenance here in a while, I am going to assume that your priorities have changed, and you’ve gone in a different direction.
Archiving due to lack of maintenance is permanent.
CACHE ARCHIVAL IS PERMANENT.
Let me know if I can be of assistance in the future.
Thanks a MILLION for all you have done, Glenn

Forest Park is one of St. Louis' most treasured resources.
Owned and operated by the City of St. Louis, Forest Park is one of 105 city parks under the jurisdiction of the Department of Parks, Recreation and Forestry.
Forest Park, officially opened to the public on June 24, 1876, is one of the largest urban parks in the United States. At 1,293 acres, it is approximately 500 acres larger than Central Park in New York.
It is the home to the region’s major cultural institutions—the Zoo, Art Museum, History Museum, Science Center and the Muny Opera. It also serves as a sports center for golf, tennis, baseball, bicycling, boating, fishing, handball, ice skating, roller blading, jogging, rugby and more.
Forest Park is equally significant from a naturalistic perspective. In a city where 80% of the land has been developed for business, industry or residential uses, the park serves as a natural oasis for the city, an important source of green space, a respite for migrating birds, and an integrated ecosystem where humans and nature interact.
It would help if you sing or hum Glen Frey song. 'Cause you belong to the city
You belong to the night
Livin' in a river of darkness
Beneath the neon lights You were born in the city
Concrete under your feet
It's in your moves, it's in your blood
You're a man of the streets
