Geocache Description:


At 5:00 PM on December 31, 1946, the flag was lowered officially for the vey last time at the US Army's Fort Oglethorpe, and the government land was put up for sale.  Local residents immediately realized that they had just been handed "a ready-made city!" Incorporated in February, 1949, it was the first city to be incorporated in the State of Georgia after World War 2.

You are now standing in front of the modern day City Hall, but of course the actual cache is not quite here but "nearby." To get the actual coordinates to the actual location, you must first complete the Adventure Lab which will take you to five unique historic sites in this busy town at the edge of Chickamauga-Chattanooga National Battlefield.  We recommend parking near the dog park... 

The final is nearby at N 34° 57.ABC  W 085° 14.DEF.
