Geocache Description:

This multi-stage cache takes you on a tour of the Village of Arroyo Grande. The best time to visit if you want to go into the museums (which are free of charge) is weekends just after noon, but the cache & exterior exhibits are available at all times. The tour may be completed on foot in about 1 mile by following the waypoints. The entire cache may be completed in less that 30 minutes, or much longer if you enjoy the exhibits. Parking is available behind the building.

Welcome to the historic Village of Arroyo Grande. With the assistance of the South County Historical Society, we have created a walk that will lead you to many interesting Arroyo Grande locations. The best time to visit if you want to go into the museums (which are free of charge) is weekends just after noon, but the cache & exterior exhibits are available at all times. The tour may be completed on foot in about 1 mile round-trip. You may also drive to some of the locations if it is too far to walk, & free public parking should be available near all of the locations. Any time is great to visit, but it does get very busy here Memorial Day weekend. The entire cache tour may be completed in less than 30 minutes, or it may take all afternoon if you enjoy each museum along your way. Have fun and enjoy the historical Village of Arroyo Grande. You may learn something! The beginning location is The Historical Society building on East Branch Street. This location has free brochures available that describe the nearby historical locations that you will be visiting. Follow the five waypoints short distances to neighboring museums before finding the final cache container disguised in plain sight. Bring a pen to write down the coordinates to the next waypoint. If you have never logged a NGS Benchmark disk, now's your chance! Walking from the first stage to the second, you will pass the corner of Branch St. and Bridge St. If you look at the top of the steps at the corner, you will notice a disk in the step.
