Congrats to MCF1nder for FTF!!
This cache is near the Veteran's Memorial neighboring the Caloosahatchee River and Glades County Library.
Could be considered one of the most beautiful parts of Moore Haven.
The town of Moore Haven is the government seat of Glades County. It is located on the banks of the Caloosahatchee River, where it was founded in 1915. It was a thriving community until the deadly "Miami Hurricane" of 1926 killed 150-200 town residents and destroyed most of the downtown buildings. Once again tragedy struck during 1928 when the entire Okeechobee region was flooded by another hurricane killing an estimated 2500. Along with structural damage to towns and agricultural land, the hurricane was very devastating to the residents' morale. Because of the aftermath of the 1928 "Okeechobee Hurricane", the Florida State Legislature and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began planning a massive flood control system to prevent Lake Okeechobee from ever spilling its banks again. The outcome was the Herbert Hoover Dike which encircles the lake.
