Geocache Description:


The idea for this cache came from hearing older men talk about playing marbles when they were kids.

Many played a game called "For Keeps". A player could lose all their marbles playing this game.

There is still a National Championship game held each June. This has been going on since 1922.

To open the cache you will need to know the material that Sam Dyke (in Akron, Ohio) used to first mass produce marbles in 1884. This process lowered the cost of marbles from a penney each to a bag of 30 for the same price.

You will need to encrypt the answer for the code to openg cache.

Parking near by on paved lot on top of the hill.

A few feet of bushwacking will be needed.

Permission granted to place this cache.
