Geocache Description:

A Letterbox/Cache hybrid located in a small community for the local Girl Scouts.


This Letterbox/Cache is for the Girl Scouts in the area and all they do to help the community, learn new things, and explore the world around them.

The Letterbox/Cache is placed with permission by the owners of the property, who are Girl Scouts themselves, and it should be obvious when you approach GZ, so you do not need to go over any fences or in buildings. A book for signing with a pencil and pen and a book for stamping with an ink pad and the box’s stamp are inside. Please leave all those items in the box. The girls left some handmade SWAG, aka SWAPS as us Girl Scouts call them, and some patches to trade, as well as four travel bugs to head out and explore.

This cache will take you to three random spots in the neighborhood to collect clues, such as numbers, to solve for the final location of the Letterbox/Cache. The above coordinates do not take you to the final location but instead to the first stop on your short trip. There is street parking at all locations and in fact you may not even need to get out of your car for a couple of them. Beware of muggles and when school is in, this is a very high muggle area during the week. Good luck and happy hunting!
