Hunting Run Park is a new park facility at Hunting Run Reservoir situated on approximately 25 acres. This project is being completed in phases and consists of a rental fishing facility to include check station, restrooms, picnic shelter, ADA Fishing Pier, access roadway, boat ramp and parking facility. Constuction is complete for Phase I. The ribbon cutting ceremony was held on Saturday, September 29, 2007, at the boat ramp.The Phase I project provides a gravel access road, temporary boat rental facility, parking area, fishing pier and boat ramp.

Park hours are:

Monday: Closed
Tuesday: Closed
Wednesday: Closed
Thursday: 6AM - Dusk or 8PM (Whichever Comes First)
Friday: 6AM - Dusk or 8PM (Whichever Comes First)
Saturday: 6AM - Dusk or 8PM (Whichever Comes First)
Sunday: 6AM - Dusk or 8PM (Whichever Comes First)


THE CACHE CAN BE FOUND EVEN WHEN THE PARK IS CLOSED. YOU DON'T HAVE TO ENTER THE PARK TO FIND IT. SIMPLY PARK AT THE FRONT GATE. THE CACHE IS VERY CLOSE TO THERE.

The Curse:

This is a cursed cache for all First-To-Finders out there. If you are the FTF for a cache in this series, you are cursed with the obligation to place another “Curse of the FTF” hide within 2 months, thereby extending the series.

CACHE GUIDELINES:

1. The FTFer should place the next cache in the series (The Curse of the FTF #23) within 2 months. Otherwise, the curse will prevent you from ever getting another FTF again. Now, wouldn’t that be troubling?!

2. You can only be a FTF for this series once. This spreads the FTF love around and gives others a chance to play along.

3. The cache can be any type of hide – traditional, puzzle, multi, etc.

4. You must include this set of guidelines in your new listing for the series. Please list all those who have been cursed before you as well.


A NOTE: This cache idea originated in Fredericksburg VA.
Since several other FTF series have popped up in adjoining caching territories, our string needs to stay confined somewhat. It is suggested that any caches in our group series stay within a 25-mile radius of Fredericksburg. Let there be no further crossings of the Potomac into Maryland!
