Geocache Description:

Second in a series of Caches to highlight Hood College and the surrounding area. Sponsored by Hood College GIS


The Rosemont Avenue gateway to Hood College is named in memory Ella Virginia Thomas, and was a gift of Julia E. and Clyde E. Thomas and G. Frank Thomas. Born in Adamstown, Md. on April 29, 1860, she was the daughter of D. Peter and Elizabeth R. Remsburg Thomas. On November 12, 1885, she married Stephen Albert Thomas, and they lived on the Thomas family homestead in Adamstown, a 189-acre farm near Sugarloaf Mountain.

View Hood College through its most iconic entrance, the Thomas Gateway. While within the vicinity, find the second in a series of caches that highlight Hood College. For those with a good geosense this wont be to hard. This is a high muggle area! Make sure to use stealth or stop by during non-peak hours.

 

Congratulations to SamNToast and GeoAPPS on a Shared FTF!
