Geocache Description:

This is a small cache located in Martinsburg's Morrison's Cove Memorial Park.

Morrison's Cove Memorial Park encompasses 21 acres within the borough of Martinsburg. It was founded in 1915 when a group attending the Brown family picnic decided the area called Snyder's Grove would be a beautiful place for a park. In 1922, the Park was incorporated and dedicated “To commemorate the valor and heroic deeds of the brave soldiers of Morrison Cove of all the wars in which the United States has participated, and to provide a public center for civic and moral instruction, recreation, amusement and promotion of athletic sports for all the people of Morrison's Cove.” In 1934 a multipurpose facility was erected to accompany indoor activities. In 1979 the facility was razed and the present recreational community complex was erected. The Park is a non-profit corporation that is supported by the hard work and financial generosity of the community.

This cache was placed in honor of:

  • The brave soldiers of all the wars in which the United States has participated.
  • My departed grandfather who was the patriarch of the Love family - John Emanuel Love.
  • G(e)O NINA! An eight year old girl whose cache donated this container.
