Geocache Description:

One of the geocaches placed for the 2015 Geocaching Circuit by the Washington Park District and the Washington Historical Society. Each one highlights a location in town of historic significance. Be sure you make a note of the special code inside the geocache!! 


In 1971 Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Weaver donated a 5.6 acre tract of land now known as Weaver Park and designated as a nature study area. On an individual basis the Park District’s part time superintendent, George Curtis, refused to accept his annual salary and designated it be put in a special baseball diamond lightning fund. The Park Board recognized his generosity in 1973 and named the baseball diamond after him.

The Washington Historical Society would like to thank the Washington Park District for granting permission for the placement of this geocache.
