***********First to Find**************** goes to hostanut.
We're hoping you have some fun with this one. You will not need to travel any further than coordinates to find this cache, but hopefully the unknown classification will be justified upon arrival.
We will need help maintaining the integrity of this cache, that way the next cachers will have the same experience. Thank you
and Please do not park along White Marsh Rd. There are 2 brand new parking lots at the park, they work just fine.
Couple warnings:
.closed from dusk til dawn
.park is regularly used by numerous sporting groups, not that much of an issue though
.beware of golfers, if you walk the woods line you will be entering driving range territory, don't honestly see that many golfers but have found a few balls along the way
."Hunting" attribute post: Although 300 acres belongs to the park we have noticed a hunting stand and a ground blind. There is supposed to be no hunting on this property, but you never know. Deer season runs from Sept 15 through Jan 31.
***Civil Air Patrol*** will occasionally use this park and the woods around the park to conduct rescue simulations. It is pretty obvious if there is a simulation in progress. You may notice some helicopters or planes circling the area. They will have a small command post set up, vehicles usually marked and a pop up tent of some sort will be up. There may be people throughout the woods in rescue attire, dogs may be in use.....
If this is going on, please come back another day.
Queen Anne’s County, Maryland—First Eastern Shore Community to Choose Pervious Concrete
Centreville’s Bloomfield Farm, once home to a working farm, now includes Whitemarsh Park, an active recreation facility housing many attractions for this Eastern Shore community in Maryland. Surrounding the original 19th century homestead, Whitemarsh Park includes fields for soccer, lacrosse and baseball, a driving range and a fishing pond, among other points of interest. Queen Annes Pervious Lot
Located on nearly 300 acres of pristine farmland, Whitemarsh Park is home to forest and meadow unique to Maryland’s Eastern Shore. When considering parking facilities for the new park, Queen Anne’s County officials wanted to take the delicate balance of the environment into account through every phase of planning to ensure Whitemarsh Park could be enjoyed for generations to come.
The Board of Commissioners was resolute in preserving the surrounding environment and educating the public about the importance and benefits of sustainable development. After much consideration and study, pervious concrete was chosen as the material to construct the site’s first of three parking areas.
Parking lots constructed with pervious concrete provide a filtration system that helps prevent oil, grease, and other contaminants from entering surface water. Additionally, the porous nature of pervious concrete allows water to drain through and recharge aquifers, helping to replenish groundwater supplies. Using this technology also helps prevent harmful erosion and unnecessary deposits of sediment into rivers and streams. Construction with pervious concrete is recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as a Best Management Practice (BMP) for stormwater management.
