Geocache Description:


A Mighty Oak Tree Was Once A Little Acorn. 

The posted coordinates leads to a roadside shelter next to one such future tree, providing shade for the weary. There are many reasons why trees are well loved, and just like those planted by our elders, we planted our own Shelley tree in front of Blk 895 Tampines Street 81, between Lamppost 38 and 40. We hope that over time, Shelley would grow to become one of these trees 🌲 

Additional logging requirements (optional):
a) Find Shelley and learn about its tree species Ardisia elliptica (refer to the waypoint coordinates)
b) Take a photo with Shelley

As your logs will also help us monitor its growth, we would truly appreciate any DMs/ logs with Shelley

Thank you for being part of our journey🙂

About Tampines Ave 1 

Located to the north of the amazing Bedok Reservoir and opp the road to Temasek Polytechnic, Tampines Ave 1 evokes a quieter environment within the greater Tampines region. With older HDB flats built in 1988 and more recently built condominiums, the area presents an eclectic mix of buildings of varying heights and colours. 

There is a nice litlle park connector esque- stretch along the entire street, with multiple roadside shelters for a quick chill.  Enjoy!
