Klager Elementary Geocaching Adventure #2 Traditional Cache

This is one of five caches placed in Manchester for a fourth grade class, learning about latitude/longitude, satellites, and geocaching. Most of the students are acquainted with the areas in which the geocaches are placed but may not know the history behind the parks or monuments.

Chi-Bro Park has a 3.5 acre spring-fed pond, small dam, grassy area, woodlot, nature trail, swing sets, two grills, benches and six picnic tables, timber-frame pavilion, wood play structure, flagpole and light, split rail fence, two sand volleyball courts, horseshoe pits, and outdoor ice rinks. A designated cross-country track extends through the park into adjacent property and is also used by the high school teams.

One of the obvious benefits of the annual July chicken broil is Chi-Bro Park. “Chi-Bro” is, of course, short for chicken broil. It is just charming to think that a park has been named for a couple of days on the annual calendar. But the park is nice. It is located on M-52 on the north side of Manchester. The Manchester water tower is the obvious landmark to follow to find the park. And a walker heads right past this landmark on the way to the park’s interesting natural features.
