Cache Is Not At The Posted Coordinates
Mr. Toot is the mascot not only of the North Iowa Band Festival, but also for Mason City as a whole. His image has appeared on everything from T-Shirts to business cards to city light poles. Now his image also appears on the geocaching map just south of Mason City Iowa. Each of these puzzles will include a fact or story in theme with the art series. Some may also include a question or two for you to answer correctly to find the coordinates.
Band Fest
In 1988, the 50th Band Festival was a three day celebration that included the spinning of the Iowa State Lottery's giant "Million Dollar Wheel"; televised statewide, live from Central Park in Mason City. The weekend also featured a live stage show featuring North Iowa actors, actresses and musicians performing Broadway hits and jazz favorites.
Note Mr. Toot on both sides of the banner.
