Geocache Description:

WCHGT caches were created as the 2016-2017 Leadership Wayne class project. We decided that we wanted to create a fun, educational, and adventurous way for families and friends to connect to the county in which they live. Therefore the 50 caches connected to this trail will give you a glimpse of the PAST, PRESENT, and FUTURE of Wayne County.


Some caches are micros, a few can hold a trackable, some are easy finds, and others prove to be quite difficult. All we ask from the Leadership Wayne class is that you enjoy the finds and learn something new about our wonderful county. Upon completion of the entire trail you will be able to collect your GeoCoin at the Wayne County museum after you have recorded your code words on the passport from each of the 50 locations.


The following counties were formed from Dobbs. Greene (formerly Glasgow) 1779, Wayne 1779, Lenoir 1791. In 1722, Craven County extended from the coast westward a distance of more than 200 miles. It was 100 miles wide. Johnston, Dobbs & Wayne counties were formed from Craven. Craven was further reduced in size over the years by annexations to form Jones, Pitt, Lenoir & Greene counties. In 1746, Johnston was formed from Craven. In 1758 Dobbs County was formed from Johnston County, and was in tact until 1779 when Wayne County was formed from its western half.
