Geocache Description:

What is Cache to Eagle? Cache to Eagle is a series of public geocaches hidden at or near the sites of Boy Scout Eagle projects.

Reaching the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America requires years of dedication and hard work. In addition to 21 required merit badges, each Scout must complete a project that requires countless hours of planning, dedicated leadership, and a commitment to our community.

This cache is part of a nationwide geocaching series called Cache to Eagle, that showcases these special contributions.

This is cache #7 of our series. Phillip Martin of Troop 259 in Chesapeake led a service project at Hoffler Creek Wildlife Preserve in 2004. The project had two purposes, one for education for a water recover system. Any home can use this for everyday watering of plants. Hoffler Creek also needed water to wash and clean items from the water area. Scouts gave over 130 hours of community serivce to complete this project.

This cache hide is meant for beginners. It is here to highlight Scouting's commitment to service and the Eagle project.

The cache is part natural - the other part, well, you will see. He is friendly. Contains a log only. You will need to bring your own writing utensil.

A scout is clean.

This hide will take you on a beautiful walk through the nature preserve. The cache is just off of the Lake Ballard Trail.
