Take a short walk from the dog park parking lot towards the mountain biking course and look for the cache in the woods.
Putting on the GeoTrail every year takes a lot of work, and we couldn't do it without the help from the geocaching community. Thanks to Robbins Family for helping us look after this cache!
Keep domestic cats indoors! Cats are considered an ‘introduced predator’ to native Ohio habitats and one of the world’s top invasive species. Their incredible stealth and speed in capturing prey, combined with their innate instincts to hunt, means that domestic cats pose a threat to Ohio wildlife. Cats kill over 1 billion birds a year in the U.S. - yes, 1 billion! They also kill 478 million reptiles, 173 million amphibians, and 12.3 billion mammals a year in the U.S. on average. You can help by keeping your cat indoors (outside on a leash) and not feeding stray cats.
