The First to Find Lakeland Series was a project designed to
motivate those cachers who are quick enough to snag a FTF to hide
their own FTF geocache in the Lakeland area. This was to help
encourage other cachers to place more caches in the Lakeland
area.
When the FTFer of #18 went to place #19 the cache was denied due to
Groundspeak NOT wanting to publish caches that encourage new hides!
I tried working with him and tried modifying the wording to the new
cache on the cache rules but was still denied. We were told we
could appeal the decision but if Groundspeak doesn't want us to
encourge users to place caches I guess we won't anymore! If the
Groundspeak rules change in the future that allows us to encourage
users to place caches then maybe we can start this series back up!
I personally enjoyed it and Lakeland got some new caches out of
it.
This cache is to be the last in the series hence the name! I tried
to find a good location so the cache name has double meaning! This
cache is not accessible via I-4 or the off ramp of I-4. Access to
it is from another direction only.
