Geocache Description:

You’re looking for a small well hidden lock n’ lock container. Please park in the parking lot and walk through the park until you find the trail to the cache. Please hide the cache the same or better then you found it.

Contains a FTF Prize!

The geocache hidden at the posted coordinates is a regular geocache, however, it is also part of the Spring Grove Area GeoTrail (SGAGT), a project designed to promote the many historic areas and other places of interest in the Spring Grove Area. The SGAGT utilizes the growing interest in geocaching to assist both residents and visitors to the area in learning more about the unique attractions. This cache contains a unique self inking rubber stamp which you should use to stamp your SGAGT Passport to verify that you found it. When you have found a minimum of fourteen SGAGT caches, you will be eligible to have your SGAGT passport validated and receive a commemorative SGAGT geocoin. You must have your official SGAGT passport with you when you find this cache in order to stamp it. Click on the link below to visit the SGAGT website at (visit link) for complete details.

As with all SGA GeoTrail caches please do not attempt to locate the cache after dusk and as always be respectful.

Please notify us immediately through geocaching.com if you have any problems!

This park was constructed in 2009 with funding assistance from the Borough of Spring Grove, the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) and the Spring Grove Little League Baseball Association. Closed in the early 1970’s this entire area was previously the Spring Grove landfill. The park features a baseball field, pavilion, playground and walking trail. In 2011 the Borough of Spring Grove applied for from DCNR for Phase Two of the Community Park. Phase Two includes the addition of electric service to the pavilion, a basketball court, volleyball court and a dog park!

2/22/12 UPDATE – We still have plenty of coins and would like to give them out before beginning a new trail for 2012. If you are having trouble getting to the office to redeem your coin, mail your passport to the Borough Office at 1 Campus Avenue, Spring Grove, PA 17362 and we will mail your passport and coin back, no charge.
