This cache has been archived.

DTCBEARSnMATHMATE: The previous management of the Pioneer Village welcomed this cache on their property for several years. A change in management occurred, and the park security personnel now no longer want a geocache on the Pioneer Village property. Sadly, we are archiving this cache due to that situation. We will put the bonus code for this cache on the bonus cache page so that cachers can have all of the codes required to find the bonus cache.

There were originally some COMMEMORATIVE WOODEN COINS that were contained in each museum geocache, and you could take one. Due to popularity, many of the museum caches no longer have any of the coins available in the caches, but you may go inside during business hours and check with the host location to see if they have any left on hand.

NOTE: Be sure to write down the NUMERIC CODE associated with, and contained in each cache. Those numbers will be used to locate the coordinates to the BONUS CACHE for this series!
