Geocache Description:


A poster on the wall of Q's Pre-K school reads:

"Always be yourself
Unless you can be a unicorn
Then always be a unicorn"


(Their sports teams are The Unicorns)

 

You're on the campus grounds of a unicorn: a technology startup company that made it big.  Very big.  In only a decade.  It fixed a problem in healthcare so people can get the medications they need to live healthy lives.  The unicorn's success made the fortunes of scores of local tech workers, many of them quite young.  The unicorn achieved this while also being just about the best place to work in Ohio (voted a best place to work for five years straight).  It raised the expectations and aspirations of its thousands of employees, and they've gone on to inspire the technology startup culture of Columbus.

 

Please do not attempt this cache from the I-670 freeway.  Navigate to the Parking waypoint by road or sidewalk so you can enjoy the gentle 1.5 Terrain rating.

Congratulations to the dynamic duo of JNLE4 and Impossible Clue for the FTF, and to DPrice95 for the STF.

The building is an obsidian glass box and from inside you are somewhat visible at the GZ, but that corner is mostly a very spacious atrium inside.  The vast majority of employees are still working from home, or remote from other cities around the US.  If you do meet muggles they're likely to be friendly.  It's a very chill workplace.  If you visit outside of Monday to Friday office hours you're unlikely to meet anyone at all.
