Geocache Description:

The "Stumped in Stumptown" series is designed to be a more challenging geocaching experience.  These are not recommended for beginners!  These caches will lead you on a tour of the Town of Matthews.  Are you up to the challenge? :D


This cache is lcoated at the enterance to the new Matthews Sportsplex.  It is a microcache, so remember to bring your own pen to sign the logbook!  While you are here, take some time to explore the historic Crestdale community.  

Dating from the 1870’s, the area was called Tank Town because a railroad water tank stood near the railroad tracks that bisected the district.  The first inhabitants of Tank Town were historically freeman and former slaves, many of whom were employed in operating the tank and performing other duties associated with the railroad.

 

Congrats to Garvinator for the FTF!
