Clearfield County is home to 31 Volunteer Fire Depts, several Emergency Medical Services, and is full of “hometowns” who have taken the time to honor their fallen and living veterans through monuments.
Come & cache Clearfield Co. to learn about all the men and women of the armed forces, fire personnel and EMT’s who voluntarily enlisted themselves to serve the citizens of the U.S., the state of PA and their hometowns of Clearfield Co. with honesty, faith, compassion, courage and integrity and to uphold the Laws of the Constitution of the United States of America.
This cache is placed at the point where three counties converge...Clearfield, Cambria and Indiana. This spot is not only the home of a monument honoring veterans from the five branches of American service, but it marks the place where a wild black cherry tree was originally planted to mark Canoe Place and the proprietaries purchase from the Indians by the Treaty at For Stanwix, Nov. 5, 1768. After the demise of the cherry tree, this stone monument was erected in 1894. Can you see now where the name of the nearby town came from?
