This cache is one of a series of twenty caches. Ten have been hidden in and around the town of Silverton and another ten are either inside the Oregon Garden or on the grounds of the Oregon Garden Resort.
Those caches inside the Garden may only be found during Garden hours, and will require an Admission Fee. Special discounts and admission offers are available just for Geocachers (check the attached link).
The Silverton caches may be found at any time, and require nothing other than your brain cells to find.
An Oregon Garden / Silverton Geocaching Passport will be available at the Visitor’s Center of the Oregon Garden. Use this to document the code for each of the caches found (codes will be inside the Cache lid or on the Cache Log).
Once completed, the Cacher may fill out the survey included on the passport and return it to the Oregon Garden Visitor Center for a special Geocoin celebrating The Oregon Garden’s 15th anniversary and in partnership with the town of Silverton. A limited number of these Geocoins will be trackable on Geocaching.com - while supplies last. Once the trackable coins are gone, there will be additional commemorative coins available.
All completed surveys will also be entered into a drawing. Drawings will happen once or twice per year (dates & prizes TBD).
A coupon for discounted Oregon Garden Admission will be available for all geocaching.com users. These coupons will available on a special web page at OregonGarden.org just for geocaching.com users (see attached related web page). This coupon should be presented at the admission desk (Visitor Center) when paying admission.
There is no cost to find the caches beyond Garden admission – Garden members and Resort guests are free and may request the passport at the Visitor Center.
