Geocache Description:


This is the bonus physical cache associated with the Adventure Lab “A Little History of Mount Vernon". The Adventure Lab mobile app and Internet connection are required to complete the Adventure Lab.  Use the search feature in the app or this URL:  A Little History of Mount Vernon Adventure Lab  to start the Adventure Lab.  The Adventure Lab should take about an hour to complete.  

To find the final coordinates for the bonus cache, you must visit all 5 Adventure Lab locations and answer a question correctly at each stop. The Adventure Lab Journal will include a bonus word for each correctly answered question. Enter the bonus words into the Checker in alphabetic order with no spaces between the words to learn the bonus cache coordinates and receive a hint.

The building across the street from the cache was one of Mount Vernon's first schools.  Built in 1891, it was also one of the first brick buildings in town.  The current building was built in 1936 and is one of Mount Vernon's oldest buildings 'on the hill'.  It is no longer being used as a school, and there are no plans to tear it down.
