On the last Friday of October, the school has an old-fashioned school carnival with face painting, nachos, carny-games, and best of all: Pumpkin bowling! The whole community attends, even if they don’t have kids in school. This cache fits right in. The original cache (2014) was a pumpkin, but it went missing too many times, so we replaced the cute pumpkin with a boring container.
This series of easy kid-friendly caches on and near Marble Road serves many purposes. We hope they will bring cachers here to see the beautiful area around our Mt. Pleasant School (where Ms. A. teaches). Be sure to check out the view to the south—that’s Crown Point across the river along the Old Columbia River Highway.
As with all caches in rural areas, we recommend bringing a pair of scissors or nippers, in case the blackberries have run amok.
