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.
Mason City
When a fire destroyed Mason City High School in 1911, classes were moved to Memorial University. While classes were moved, plans went ahead for rebuilding.
As far as we know, this was the only time the school district made money on a fire. The insurance companies paid the district for a complete loss. By hiring a superintendent the board succeeded in rebuilding at a lesser figure.
