Geocache Description:


"You Can't Roller Skate __ _ _______ ____" was a Top 40 hit for Oklahoma singer/songwriter Roger Miller in 1966. If you can complete the lyric, you've got a leg up on solving the theme of this Lawton cache run. All 12 caches are micros or smaller. High muggle factor at most locations, so use extreme stealth.

This was originally conceived to be a single multi-cache, but the more we looked, the more locations we found. I don't know anyone who's got the patience for a 12-part multi-cache, so we did it this way. The series was placed for the enjoyment of the SouthWest Area Geocachers (SWAG) and the Texoma Geocaching Assn. (ToGA) when they gathered for a meeting in Lawton several years ago.  Most of those caches are still in play, and several more have been added over the years.

At this stop, you're looking for a micro on the campus of Cameron University. There is high muggle activity during the week when classes are in session, so be stealthy!

Cameron Trivia: "Give us truth to light the darkness" is the first line of "Cameron Pride," the university's alma mater.

Buffalo Trivia: Cameron University's sports teams have been called the "Aggies" since the school's early days.  Even so, there was a brief effort around 1990 to change to the "Bison."  Given the fact that the University of Colorado shares the same intials, school colors and is called the "Buffaloes," the idea was abandoned.
