Geocache Description:

In anticipation and preparation for our inaugural meet and greet, we decided to place a few more caches in this beautiful park. Whether attending the meet and greet or just taking a stroll through the park, we hope that you enjoy these caches. Some caches are close to parking while others are not, however I encourage you to park in one spot and enjoy the park.
Your log is the only other reward we get other than the fun of placing these caches. This is a log only nano so byop.

Cooper Park is centrally located in the Mountain Home Parks system. The park also serves as the administrative headquarters for the Parks Department. Many local sports program use Cooper Park as their home field including the Hurricane Swim Team, American Legion Baseball, and the Mountain Home High School Baseball Team.

The Parks Facilities include a youth center, walking/running trail, senior center, pool, baseball field, soccer field, nature pond, historical settlement, two pavilions, playgrounds, outdoor basketball, three tennis courts, outdoor fitness station, and much more.

A big Thank you goes to Kelly Lewis and the Mountain Home Parks and Rec department for their assistance and permission to place these caches.

Mountain Home was once known as Rapp's Barren. This is also the name of this little corner of Cooper Park. There are several buildings that have been relocated here from the surrounding area and give a peek into our little town's past. I also do Civil War reenacting and every October our group takes part in the Baxter County History Day held in this section of the park.
