Geocache Description:


This cache is located at the historic epicenter of Orange City. It is at a park dedicated to Dr. Frances Dickinson (Dr. Dickinson donated a great deal of land to Orange City in the early 1900s for a colored school, the park, the library, and more). The Park was built in 1916 and is connected to a Memorial Library. It is open from sunrise to sunset

The cache container was a Deluxe Kraft Macaroni and Cheese Dinner Box (Like the B. arenaked Ladies sing, "If I had a million dollars, we wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinners ... But we would, we'd just eat more"). The box was painted tan and started out with a tin of Altoids Gum, a Scooby Doo whistle, a Darth Vader Rubik’s-like puzzle, quarters, Shrek Band-Aids, a pencil, and a bagged log. The cache container is now a cool metal tube.

The high rating on this one has to do with stealth. The cache is located right between two streets, though there is parking along the median (Please be very careful walking to and from the cache). Because of its location, the cache is not simple to get your hands on without drawing attention. When you get to the correct location, look around. Since the cache is about the same size as forty stacked compact discs, there is only one place it could be. Yes, it is there. Before trying to get the cache, be sure that no people are watching you.

Have fun and On-On!

PS Please try to carefully return the cache to its original location. Someone chucked it back and it spilled open. I hope I do not have to make it a micro.

PPS I cleaned up the area a bit tonight, and I found a few beer cans circa 1975, a few Burger King cups with a 1970 TM, an old rotary phone (My sixth-graders have no idea how to use one of those things), and an old steel Sunkist can that has "Good Vibrations" in large letters. Both the beer cans and soda can were old pull-toppers.
