Cedar Park Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

grossi: Because of increasing enrollment, the Seattle School District is going to re-open this elementary school over thirty years after closing it. The residents of the art studio collective have been told to vacate, and some other changes might be coming to the park grounds. Since a cache shouldn’t be located so close to a school (especially on property that might become part of the playground), I stopped by the park late this afternoon to check on the cache. It was still there, so I removed the container. Thanks to the 300+ cachers who stopped by to search for this hide over the past nine and a half years.

Geocache Description:


Cedar Park is on the site of the former Cedar Park Elementary School at 37th Avenue NE and NE 135th Street in Lake City. It's a well-used neighborhood park, so if it looks busy, you might want to drive by and try again later.

Although the school has been closed since 1981, the building now houses Artwood Studios, a collective where artists live and have studio space. After extensive fundraising by local residents, Cedar Park opened as a Seattle City Park in 1999. There are several features to enjoy in this small neighborhood park, including play equipment, picnic tables, and a paved trail encircling a grassy field.

The cache is a silver nano.
