Geocache Description:

Welcome to the Pink Series. This series is broken down into two parts: Ribbon 1 and Ribbon 2. The object is to complete each ribbon to get the coordinates for the Finale. The topics were chosen to enlighten you about both well-known and some obscure Pink facts, places and living things.

Due to Mother Nature losing her battle to the expansion of luxury condos, this series will be archived on July 31, 2020.
