OReviewer: As there's been no cache to find for a long time or has had no owner response for at least 30 days, I'm archiving it to keep it from showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Please note that if geocaches are archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ for lack of maintenance, they are not eligible for unarchival.

In a wooded area adjoining a playing field. Easy walking, kid friendly. Dogs are OK, but probably not on the ball field. A nearby stream will guarantee mud in your car!

Crashed 20 December 1963

This small cache is in a park that gets a lot of play time, its always in use. Stealth is a must.
Curious kids will be all over this one if your seen. Drop a baseball and feign searching for it if you have to. Always a good trick.
The cache itself is small, tiny trinkets only please. Geocoins are always welcome, rare as they maybe in the wild. Bring a scribe, as one will not exist in cache. Happy caching! -viking66
