HISTORY
The given coordinates will take you to the site of Huntington's Coca-Cola bottling plant. This plant was established by Julius Broh in the early 1900s and operated until 1984. As you can see the building is still standing and the large stone Coca-Cola logos are still present. For more information on the history of this location please visit the related web page above.
CACHE
Now on to the cache...at the given coordinates you should be able to find a silver strip with a three digit number, a dash, then a two digit number.
The cache is located at: N 38 25.(the two digit number plus 146) W 082 26.(the three digit number plus 183)
The cache is a mini Coca-Cola locker with some nice Coca-Cola history inside. The cache will originally have several vintage Coca-Cola key chains. These key chains would make great trackables! We encourage people to trade and put Coca Cola based swag in this cache! In addition to this the logbook in this cache is over 70 years old. This a notebook given out by the Coca-Cola bottling company in 1943. Check out the inner and outer cover of the logbook for a blast from the past! One last thing, a big thanks to the church where the final is located! If you happen to be asked any questions while caching just tell them Ed approved the hide!
Special thanks to UKPSU CACHERS for hiding this cache.
