Geocache Description:


This cache is placed for the Haunt in Halmich XII event. All event attendees who chose to find this cache the night of the event are eligible to claim FTF status. In addition, this cache is placed in Halmich Park, a City of Warren Park; caching hours are 7am-10pm.


The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

A letterbox hybrid cache is based off of letterboxing, which predates geocaching by 150 years. In order to find most letterbox caches, you are required to start at the posted coordinates and follow along the story in the cache description which will lead you to the final container with a logbook and a stamp for you to stamp your personal notebook (again, another adaptation from letterboxing). We decided to mix things up this Haunt in Halmich with several of these letterboxes. Hope you have fun!

All nine letterboxes in Halmich Park revolve around a boy named Josh and his adventures dealing with the ghouls of Haunted Halmich Park. All the letterboxes are numbered in the title based on their location in the park - it is highly recommended to follow them in order (you don't have to start at number one) to make an efficient trip around the park.


Using your GPS, find your way to the posted coordiantes to start the letterbox.

Josh was getting thirsty during his walk in the park and he decided to hit up the concession stand and what do you know, it's Bobo102102 hard at work! Josh ordered a fruity Miami Vice drink and asked him if he knew where the cache was because he worked almost every game at the park. Bobo said "you need to head towards diamond 5 1/2 much like Platform 9 3/4 and travel towards the Kiwanis Club scoreboard. Follow the fenceline south until you find yourself between the fifth and sixth signs that are on the other side of the fence, but stay on the park side. The cache should be there, but what do I know, I serve concessions". The drink must have made an impact on Josh because he followed Bobo's directions and was rewarded with the cache.
