Geocache Description:


About Rick Oden Park:

Named after Little Leaguer Richard “Rick” Oden, this nearly 37-acre linear park offers fun for the entire family with baseball fields, a picnic area, and a playground on-site, located just one-half east of South Garland Road off of Miller Road. Home to the Jack Coleman Tennis Center, the much-loved Rick Oden Park attracts tennis fanatics from all over the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Whether you are looking to tighten up your backhand for tournament play or you are just looking to add some cardio to your weekly routine, the Jack Coleman Tennis Center has you covered. 

Thanks to the passing of the 2019 Bond, Rick Oden Park is scheduled for major upgrades, including a new regional playground, a regional skatepark (not part of 2019 bond), pedestrian bridge, shade structures, benches, drinking fountains, restrooms, trails, sports field renovations, paving improvements and general site infrastructure improvements.

Park Hours are 6AM to 11:59pm Daily - Skate park closes at 10pm

About the cache:

 

This cache is a reverse Wherigo 

This Wherigo converts your player into a virtual version of the "Reverse Cache Box" which tells you the distance to the cache, but not the bearing. You may begin your search from any spot in the world using your Smartphone or Whereigo compatible GPS to navigate to the cache.

The cartridge was created by -Waldmeister- and is available to download from the wherigo website. The Reverse Cache - beta . (Version 3.5 as of this date.)

-Waldmeister-'s "The first Reverse Cache [WIG]" is the original cache in this family.

Note: If you use the “Whereyougo” phone application, download the Pocket PC Device version of the cartridge (.gwc). When a cartridge is played, Whereyougo creates two open source files (.ows and .gwl) related to the cartridge. If you have previously used the Reverse Cache cartridge, you may have to delete the old files from your Whereyougo directory or delete the cartridge and download a new copy in order to hunt a new Reverse Wherigo cache. (If you download the version from November 2016, the issue appears to be resolved.)

Your task is to find the cache by periodically querying your Reverse Cache Box for the distance to the final location. Try to use your Reverse Cache Box as few times as possible. All instructions and necessary information needed to complete the cartridge is contained within it. The cartridge is multilingual.

To begin, you will have to type this code into your player:

It is suggested that you take the code with you on your journey. It will be needed if it becomes necessary to restart your player for any reason.
