Geocache Description:


The Memorial Garden is behind the USC Township Building which is located just off of route 19. This cache is a micro. Please be sure to put it back properly.

On September 8, 1994, ten members of the Upper St. Clair Community perished on Flight 427 when it crashed in Hopewell Township near Pittsburgh International Airport. In friendship and support for the families and friends in our community, the Township of Upper St. Clair constructed a permanent memorial garden with the hope that a lasting memorial will comfort the families and honor the deceased.

The groundbreaking ceremony for the garden was held on November 9, 1994. The garden was designed to be a peaceful area along McLaughlin Run Creek, near the Township Municipal Building. The memorial garden includes benches, shade trees, perennial beds, Nordic holly, rhododendrons and a walkway. Please respect the environment.

You will not have to leave the concrete pathway to find this cache. The cache contains only a log sheet as there is no room for anything else. Please bring a writing utensil to sign the log and then gingerly replace the container where you found it. The cache has been labeled handicapped accessible, however the container may not be retrievable without assistance.

Thanks and good luck hunting!

Note: As always, sign the logsheet for a smilie! Also, please do not post spoilers in your online log.
