This is one of three caches which has been hidden for the 5th Whitehill and Bordon Summer Fun Day in 2019,
The Whitehill and Bordon Urban Trail is a small set of caches about the centre of the town to allow anybody to try out Geocaching.
This cache is the second caches in the W&B Urban Trail for the fun day and is a Church micro. Church micros are a series of caches that are based on churches and can are a popular series for cachers and hence why the cache is not titled W&B Urban Trail 2.
In the future we are looking to expand the W&B urban Trail to include a "Curry Micro", an "Off Yer Trolley", a "Side Tracked" and a "Village Hall" to introduce you to these other series.
For more information on Geocaching in Whitehill & Bordon we have a Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/cachingWB. with information of other series etc. in this area there is also a Hampshire Geocachers page.
St Mark's Shared church was opened in 1982, it is a joint venture between the Church of England, Methodist and URC denominations. Prior to this, the church met in a hall in Saville Crescent where it was part of Headley parish. St Marks is now a parish in its own right. As a LEP (Local Ecumenical Partnership), St Mark's welcomes people from a wide range of denominations or none. It is part of the Guildford Anglican diocese, the East Solent and Downs Methodist circuit and the Wessex URC synod. All meet together as a whole and united congregation. We all worship together and everyone is welcome.
