Shakespeare in the Park Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Autumn2007: A muggle fell upon this geocache in the early spring of 2017 and took it home. She somehow figured out how to contact us (there is a memo inside the cache) and alerted us to having taken it. Although she responded to emails, she did not respond to our requests to meet so that we could reclaim the contents and repair the cache. As suggested, with so many people not finding it, and several weeks having gone by without any further response from the muggle, we are archiving this cache. We hope to create a new one soon!

Geocache Description:

This is in Ottawa's Stanley Park next to the Rideau River. Sit on a bench or a rock and enjoy the sounds of crickets and birds.


Update April 14: I received an email from marina_dunford@hotmail.com a few days ago saying the following: "Hi I found your geocache yesterday and it was quite fun! The thing is I don't have a GPS and I am not sure I would be able to follow coordinates if I did! I will put it near where I found it but truthfully I don't remember the exact spot! I see by what you wrote that you started this in 2007 so I would like to keep it going so how do I get to say where it is I will put it? I could let you know an exact spot and you figure it out and post it, could you do that?? OK bye for now, take care, Marina"

It seems the entire cache was taken away from its original spot, with no understanding of how this is to be done. So it is likely nearby, and may need extra searching! We will visit it as soon as possible to see if we can locate it and place it back where it should be.

ORIGINAL POST: This cache is in a lock 'n lock sandwich box wrapped with camo tape. Bring trades! Pen provided for signing the log book.

 

Beware: high muggle traffic. Bikers, dog walkers and runners abound! We've hidden the cache behind some fallen bark.

I did a Shakespeare in the Park summer camp this year and loved it. I played the part of Juliet in the balcony scene of Romeo and Juliet. I also played the part of Wall, played by "one Snout by name", in the play within the play of Midsummer Night's Dream. I'm looking forward to doing more Shakespeare at school this year!

I hope you enjoy finding this cache!
