Over ten years ago we hid a cache in this park called Man of Courage (GC18E2J). If you check out the original cache post it contains some interesting historic pictures. The original cache was there for 2 3/4 years and was found 67 times. We thought we would try this park again. You are looking for a cammoed lock & lock that contains a logbook, pencil, & items for trading. Please use your best stealth and rehide the cache well.
Here is the original cache write up:
Stories of people who give of themselves to help others are always inspiring. Raoul Wallenberg was an amazing person. There are hundreds of memorials, streets, buildings, parks etc all over the world honouring him, even here in our own city. Here is a quick summary of his Bio:
Raoul Wallenberg was a Swedish businessman and diplomat, born in Stockholm, Sweden. He took a science degree at Ann Arbor, then worked as the foreign representative of a European company run by a Hungarian Jew (1935–44). When Hitler began deporting Hungarian Jews to concentration camps he was sent to Hungary as a ‘diplomat’ with the assistance of the US and Swedish governments to rescue as many Jews as he could. He designed a Swedish protection passport, and arranged ‘Swedish houses’ offering Jews refuge, saving up to 100 000. When Soviet troops occupied Hungary in 1945 he was taken to Soviet headquarters and never returned. On insistent Swedish requests, Soviet authorities produced a document stating that he had died of a heart attack in July 1947, but testimony of ex-prisoners suggested that he was still alive in the 1950s, and persistent rumours implied he was still in prison in the 1970s. Wallenberg was made an honorary citizen of the USA in 1981, of Canada in 1985, and of Israel in 1986.
