Geocache Description:

This is a magnetic nano cache located in one of Omaha's best parks. Please bring your own pen.

ELMWOOD PARK GROTTO, 60th & Leavenworth (south of the Elmwood Park pavillion). The elmwood Grotto and Springs date back to the late 19th century. In 1947, the spring water was deemed unsafe to drink and the water spigots were shut off. In 1999, the Peter Kiewit Foundation donated $1,000,000 to renovate the grotto. Now a new water feature contains seven streams of water coming out of boulders, representing the seven original spigots. New plantings and rockwork have given new life to the grotto and it is often reserved for weddings and family reunions.
