Greetings,

It has been a while since I first looked at this cache. I can't find any recent responses about maintaining this cache so for the time being it will be archived and removed from the active cache listings. We are no longer leaving caches stay disabled for extended periods of time.

Groundspeak and the geocaching community appreciate your contributions to geocaching and I hope to see this cache back in operation soon.

If you can get it back up and running in the next week or so contact me to get it re-listed. Otherwise plan to move it slightly and set up a new cache page.

[B][green]Most problems can be solved with good communication so reply back to the reviewer and we will do everything possible within the guidelines to get your cache published. It is best to give me as much information as possible instead of saying nothing at all. This will speed up the process and we can get your cache published. [/green][/b]

Geocache Description:


Welcome to Bolivar!

Early settlers to this area had come from Bolivar, in southwestern Tennessee, which had been named after Gen. Simon Bolivar, the South American war hero.

In 1835, when the northern part of Greene County was created into a new county, the name of Polk was submitted by three brothers, John Polk, William C. Polk, and Ezekiel Campbell, in honor of their Grandfather, Ezekiel Polk.

After a suitable location for the county seat had been agreed upon, the brothers again submitted the name of Bolivar, the same as the name of their grandfather Polk in Tennessee.

Bolivar has existed as a city since Nov. 10, 1835. Bolivar was organized as a fourth-class city February 15, 1881.

The town is perhaps best known as the location of Southwest Baptist University and it was ranked number 87 on a list of 100 Best Small Towns in America in 1995.

This fun little park and grab is located near one of our local businesses. I have received permission from the owner to place it and they know you might be coming. Use stealth during business hours in case non-informed “muggles” might be lurking about.

The original contents of the cache: carabiner, toy motorcycle, CITO bag, necklace, log book and pen/pencil, and Travel Bug Vienchien. I’m hoping someone heading to Europe soon retrieves this TB and moves him back to his original home in Crete. He’s been traveling for almost two years and must be getting homesick by now.

Enjoy the hunt!
