Geocache Description:


FORE!

"Fore!", originally a Scots interjection, is used to warn anyone standing or moving in the flight of a golf ball. ... These caddies were often warned about oncoming golf balls by a shout of the term "fore-caddie" which was eventually shortened to just "fore!".

Welcome to the Middletown OHIO New Discoveries GeoTour

Cache Background

"Fore!" cache celebrates the history of this beautiful space. It was first developed by the City of Middletown as a 1,000-acre park and golf course along the Elk Creek Valley. This development was first proposed by the City in the 1963 Master Plan, with the first land purchase occurring in 1965. With the aid of the Weber W. Sebald Park Fund, additional land was obtained. On August 1, 1966, the park was officially named Weber W. Sebald Park, and the land on the east side of the purchase became Weatherwax Golf Course. The Sebald Park Area of Elk Creek MetroPark has been owned and managed by MetroParks since 2014. The park is now a section of the Elk Creek MetroPark. The Sebald Park currently consist of 352 acres. The park contains the only public horse trails in Butler County.
