Geocache Description:


My first hide, simple and easy.

Here is a little pocket park in my hometown honoring the veterans of our armed services and named, appropriately, Veterans Park. This Memorial Day hide is in recognition and gratitude for their service, protecting our great country and our lives and freedoms.

A special thanks to my not-nearly-often-enough caching partner 1SGRock, who even after retiring from active service continues to help and teach our young people in the JROTC.

And, to all of you ... Ave!

Initial contents:
1. For the FTF a log sheet with a pristine blank space for your handle + a small, but wonderfully detailed etching of our first commander in chief done in green ink on special Treasury paper
3. A flag bracelet
3. Tiny sculptures of a machine-gunner and a plane done in colorful plastic
4. A red, white, and blue ribbon with an eagle pin
Bring along your own patriotic/military swag for trade.

FTF congrats to GeckoFish, scrams, and cowgirlcacher! (wasn't me in the truck, though ;>)

11-13-10 UPDATE: Cache is back in play, shifted slightly to a better hiding spot and with a new (and more appropriate) container. There's also new swag, including an unactivated Support the Troops geo-tag for the FTF the revived cache.
