Geocache Description:


Welcome to Mount Pleasant Nature Park.  This park is a true gem that I'm sure locals know about but I recently discovered.  It's a great spot for a walk, to fish, have a picnic.

Lots of muggles in the area so please use stealth when retrieving and replacing the cache!

The Mount Pleasant Provincal Fish Hatchery ws the only supervised provincial fishing area in the province.  In it's heyday it was so popular that on season opening day traffic on Highway 24 (Mount Pleasant Road) would be jammed and the road lined on both sides with cars for hundreds of metres.  The ponds were restocked twice a week every week from May to September.  Staff managed the crowds and the site, made attractive with groomed and planted lawn area.  

Despite its popularity, the site ws closed by the Ministry of Natural Resources in 1981.  After a period of private ownership and gradual decline, the park is now owned by the County of Brant and leased to the Mount Pleasant Optimist Club.

Cache is a PBJ filled with some swag the kids would enjoy.
