Over 570 cacher teams have logged over 6,400 finds. One cache machine found 102 ISQ caches in a single day (daylight hours only).

INDIANA SPIRIT QUEST #297
”Brethren's Maize"

Welcome to Ginder Cemetery (aka Sawdust), Wilmington Township, DeKalb County.

Listen to what the Mysterious Shadow has to say:

This small, but growing cemetery is at the Mount Pleasant Church, sometimes referred to by the church’s name.

The church itself in an impressive building. It appears to be nicely kept. There is a large bell on display on the west side, presumably from an original structure at this location.

There is a newer white vinyl fence bordering the north side. A new addition has been added for expansion eastward.

You may see an unusual sight here, in season: Corn planted in the cemetery. This has been done for the past ten years. Look to the southeast corner of the cemetery.

There are several veterans here from the different wars. Many have the flag holders, but no verifying inscriptions.

WHY IS THIS CORN HERE?

FIND LOGS ON THIS CACHE THAT INDICATE NIGHT CACHING WILL BE DELETED WITHOUT NOTICE!

The cache container is a match holder. BYOP. .The cache is not located near a grave... If you find a fallen US flag, please stick it back in the ground. As always, please be respectful, and cache in, trash out.XXXXa!
