Geocache Description:

Scouting themed cache, located near trail in ammo box

***This is a themed cache, please only trade items that are scouting related***

As an Eagle Scout, I hold all types of scouting in high regard. This love for scouting inspired me to create this themed cache.

Located at Hawthorne Hill Nature Center, this cache is hidden near the original location of the Sybaquay Girl Scout council camp lodge. Operated from 1938 until 1972, this Girl Scout camp boasted a lodge, picnic shelter, and even a replica of the 1835 Gifford cabin. The City of Elgin purchased the land after the camp closed and erected the nature center in 2005.

The site is open from dawn to dusk every day of the year and the nature center is open to the public on the second Sunday, and fourth Saturday of the month from 1 to 4pm.

Please feel free to visit the other two caches hidden at Hawthorne Hill.
