IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: A letterbox hide with a stamp has appeared very close to this cache. It looks like a geocache container and is in a camo'd bag. It is also wet because the bag has holes chewed in it. This is not the cache, however. The cache is about 3 feet to the left of the letterbox on the other side of a partition. Please see the pictures in the Owner Maintenance notes dated 7/2/19 to see what the letterbox looks like and what the cache looks like! Some cachers have signed the letterbox log and logged this cache as a find. Because the containers are so close together, I am not deleting those logs. But the letterbox does not have the composer clue in it, the cache does.
This series of caches will tell you about different community orchestras in the SF Bay Area. This is an especially rich area for amateur music. Each of these caches will also have a clue in it, the name of a composer. Collect all the composer names to get the coordinates for a bonus cache.
The Silicon Valley Philharmonic, or SVPHIL, was founded in 2009 by music director Hyun Kim. SVPHIL’s goal is to bring high class sounds of music to local communities with annual concerts featuring talented soloists from the Bay Area and around the world. SVPHIL also supports affiliated organizations, including the SF Korean Symphony & Chorus, Silicon Valley Youth Symphony, and Tri Valley Youth Symphony.
SVPHIL comprises a mix of professional musicians, music teachers, and high level amateurs. They rehearse bi-weekly in Light of the Lord Community Church, just down the road from this cache in Mary Gomez Park.
Bring your own pen, and replace as found. Cover with natural camo after replacing if necessary to reduce the chance of its getting muggled. It has already gone missing once and been moved to a hopefully safer location.
Congratulations to not2b on the FTF!
