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. The log book at each cache location has one of the 12 points of the Boy Scout Law (they are in random order). Once a registered Scout or Scouter has found four (4) Cache to Eagle caches within Blackhawk Area Council and can relate the point of the scout law to a cache, e-mail the answer to me thru this website to receive a Cache to Eagle Patch.

In addition, for every four BAC Cache to Eagle caches you find, you will earn an entry into a drawing for one of the exclusive, not yet found on Ebay, 2010 Scouting geocoins. Thus, if you find four caches, you get a patch and one entry. If you find sixteen, you get a patch and four entries.

Don't worry non-Scouting cachers, we will be randomly placing entry forms in our caches for your names to be placed in the drawing too.

Patches and coins are available while supplies last, and your entry will stay active until the coins are all gone.




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 — on average — requires 167 service hours. In 2008 alone, that translated to $16 million in service (based on the national volunteer hour value of $19.51).

This cache is part of a nationwide geocaching series called Cache to Eagle, that showcases these special contributions. There are several Eagle Scout projects located throughout Skare Park. This pavilion was renovated by an Eagle Scout.



This cache has been placed with the permission of the Rochelle Park District. Thank you to Liz Martinez for your assistance and support of the Boy Scouts of America!

This cache hide is meant for beginners. It is here to highlight Scouting's commitment to service and the Eagle project. That being said the hint will be a dead giveaway. I hope you enjoy it. Check back often, more caches to follow in the coming months.
