James Madison Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

MainePublisher: All geocache placements must have a responsive owner. The cache owner must be able to respond to issues that come up and to submit an "owner maintenance" log to remove the "needs maintenance" icon.

In addition to the "needs maintenance" logs and DNF logs, Goundspeak also uses a Health Score algorithm. https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713

In this case, Groundspeak has sent an email to the cache owner with no response. The cache owner did not respond to any of the cachers hoping to find the cache and did not respond to the reviewer note so the cache is now archived.

The cache location is now open for any Geocacher to place a new cache, including the original cache owner.

CONGRATULATIONS TO sheni FOR A FTF AT THE NEW LOCATION!

Madison is a town in Somerset County, incorporated March 7, 1804. In 1846 it ceded land to Norridgewock.

Father Sebastian Rasle arrived in 1695 in the Old Point area, living with and ministering to the Indians there until he was killed by the British in 1724. He built the first church in the town.

Named for President James Madison, it was surveyed in 1791 and permanent white settlers arrived at least be 1775.

The Lakewood Summer Theater, opened in 1901 in East Madison, on the west side of Lake Wesserunsett. On the east side in the village of East Madison, a dam hints at its history as a mill site.
The cache is near The Madison Library. On the grounds is the Madison Veterans Memorial. It is a beautiful monument and worth the visit.
