Geocache Description:

An easy cache in a suburban park.

This trove celebrates all the great folk named Robert, including one of the cache-owners and (sort-of) the Lord this park is named for.
 
That particular quasi-Robert - Lord Roberts, he was called - wasn't Canadian and isn't so especially widely-known but let us tell you a little about him.  He was born in India  in 1832, died in 1914, an Anglo-Irish soldier and one of the most successful commanders of the Victorian era.  He won a VC and caboodles of other awards.  Interestingly, he was one of only two non-Royals to receive a Royal funeral in the 20th century;  the other was Sir Winston Churchill.
 
So please, join us in saluting him and the Roberts of the world.
 
Original cache contents include:
the log, a pencil
a card with 'Robert trivia' (please don't remove it from the cache)
a robot
Bob-omb
a Spongebob wallet
