Back to School at Sydenstricker



Come join us at the Sydenstricker Schoolhouse (8511 Hooes Rd, Springfield, VA 22153) on Saturday, August 19th from 9:30am - 11:30am. There will be coffee and donuts (while supplies last) to go with the geotalk. This is an indoor and outdoor event. Gather in the shaded schoolyard or hang out in the schoolhouse itself, where you can view a collection of vintage artifacts and historical displays. Ask the CO to ring the original school bell from the 1920s.

If you haven't already, this would also be a good time to complete the Adventure Lab on site, as well as the longer Wherigo. The Adventure Lab's Bonus Cache and the Wherigo's final container are both offsite -- a few minutes drive away in both cases.

Just across the street is Cache to Eagle, NCAC Old Dominion: Loyal and a very short drive down the street is Troop 52044 from which one can also walk to Cross County Expressway (FSf #3).

Permission to use the schoolhouse and grounds has been granted by the Upper Pohick Community League. Smoking is prohibited. The woods contain some hazards, as indicated.

See you there!
