On the Bay View Trail, terrain is easy. Not sure what has happened over time, but the cache does not fit in the original spot as well anymore. It used to be very difficult to spot, but not so much anymore.
This cache is placed with the permission of the Mason Neck park rangers and has the necessary VA State Parks geocaching sticker.
Do a good turn daily, the Boy Scout slogan, was the inspiration for this cache.
On January 19th, 2009 President Obama made a call to service to create a change in this country that we all wish to see. The Boy Scouts of America, in response to this call, stated the Good Turn for America initiative. It is in this spirit that this cache was placed.
Please take some time to visit www.goodturnforamerica.org. It is a portal to many other sites that promote and share stores of service. Please feel free to share your stories of service.
