Will soon begin archiving this series.
<p>Johnson County Park & Recreation District (JCPRD) is celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2015. The District is a leader in its field providing the community with top quality parks and recreational opportunities while being responsible stewards of all our resources. The District’s contributions to the personal lives of Johnson County’s citizens have earned the District local appreciation and national acclaim. Each year the District records more than 7 million park visitors and over 2 million recreation participations in over 4,000 programs. Their slogan is “What do YOU do for fun? If you are reading this, one answer is probably Geocaching. The District is planning many special activities throughout the year. With that in mind, and with the District’s approval we bring you 60 JCPRD caches, one for each of their 60 years. This series highlights the District’s trails with 15 different caches listed below. The District maintains over 70 miles of trails for all types of users. These trails include surfaced multi-use, nature, hiking, mountain biking and equestrian. Each featured trail has a cache with a code in it. Collect all 15 and you will have the coordinates to this series final. Some of these caches are located at future trail sites and some are located along existing trails. Enjoy these gems of the county and happy caching, but most of all have FUN!</p>
<p>This cache is for the trails at Sunflower Nature Park, a 60 acre park featuring a paved one mile nature trail, picnic shelter, fishing pond and restroom. One half mile of the paved trail is wheelchair accessible. The game fields located on the side of the park are operated by the City of DeSoto. Also there are mowed trails winding through the park. Guided nature walks for groups of 5 or more can be arranged by calling the Ernie Miller Nature Center at 913-764-775. The cache is not along a trail and will require a short walk through a prairie habitat and it could be wet around GZ. The usual Kansas PIT’s could be an issue in season after all it is a nature park. Have a nice walk and enjoy this peaceful park while you take aim at this cache.</p>
