Geocache Description:

Hill Farm barn quilt.


The Crystal Lake Historical Society and Crystal Lake Park District has created and installed a barn quilt on the Hill Farm Barn. The quilt honors the 90th anniversary of the formation of the Crystal Lake Park District. A Weathervane Variation pattern was selected and painted in colors to symbolize the natural elements that formed our McHenry County landscape. Deep blue represents the waters of our many ponds, lakes and rivers. Lighter blue represents the sky from which rain and sunshine nourish our crops. Green represents the lush farm fields and natural areas that have been preserved throughout McHenry County. Deep red symbolizes the prairie fires that formed our native landscapes and nourished the rich soil to provide for bountiful farming. Information provided by Crystal Lake Park District.
