━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

This large family-friendly hide is a quick but worthwhile multicache filled with lots of treasures. It's a very safe place for trackables. There is no employee interaction or purchase necessary to find this cache, but questions and conversation are welcome. The museum features free admission, so if you have the time - plan to stick around to explore. NOTE: the final stage is available only while the museum is open; hence the cache is NOT available on Sundays. 

The first stage will take you near a sidewalk behind the building. Use the information located here to bring you to the (much larger!) final location. The second and final stage will take you inside a nearby building that has graciously agreed to host the cache. Please feel free to enjoy the free admission by exploring the gallery and exhibits. 

The final stage is available during the following times:

  • Monday: 11am-5pm
  • Tuesday: 11am - 5pm
  • Wednesday: 11am - 5pm
  • Thursday: 11am - 9pm
  • Friday: 11am - 5pm
  • Saturday: 10am - 5pm
