This cache is located at the city park that is dedicated to the memory of the Stevensville Creamery Cooperative that burned down in 1911, but still remains a part of the community. For some this may be a park and grab and others it may take a bit of looking, but try not to be too obvious to passers-by regardless.
From the Creamery Garden Park Sign: Est. 1992 "In 1907, over 50 local dairymen formed a cooperative creamery, with manager John Howe establishing the creamery's "Gold Bar" butter and ice cream as one of the state's outstanding dairy products. When a June, 1911 fire gutted the creamery, Howe told the community that if they could rebuild the business in 30 days, he would host the biggest celebration they had ever seen. They came close to the deadline (39 days), and Howe stuck to his word. There were public speakers and a free lunch, which included "Gold Bar" ice cream and butter, and all the buttermilk the participants could hold. Since then, the annual STEVENSVILLE CREAMERY PICNIC remains a part of the community, and is held the first weekend of August."
