Geocache Description:


William & Mary had a budding "Air School" in the 1930s under the guidance of College President J.A.C Chandler. The College had two different facilities during its short venture into aviation. Both were located originally along what is now Mooretown Road. The newer facility changed to private operation and was the namesake for modern-day Airport Road.

The program was a casualty of a combination of the economic environment of the Depression, Dr. Chandler's failing health, and more than any other factor, most likely the changes in a growing technology which quickly shifted to the military and commercial sector during WWII.


The Waller Mill Park Bike Trail is a two mile multiuse asphalt path connecting Rochambeau Drive and Mooretown Road. Additional park information is available in the "Related Web Page" link. A big thank you to the City of Williamsburg for allowing us to geocache along this wonderfully maintained trail.
