Geocache Description:

This one should be a quick grab-n-go! For the FTF, there's a cute little 'bug' compass!

Another sign welcoming you into Richlands, just outside of the baseball field.

Here are some interesting things you may not know about the Town of Richlands:

*Incorporated on March 29, 1880.
*First town in the county to have its own library and museum. (Home of the Onslow County Museum.)

*Excellent schools
*Geographic high point of the county.
*Home to the last standing WPA structure in the county, the Richlands Community Building, which was built in 1935.
