Geocache Description:

**This geocache is made out of natural materials. It gets wet. That's part of its nature. Please be sure to keep the log in the plastic baggie. And please, there is no need to post a 'maintenance' note on this cache because it is wet. Expect it will be. **

This letterbox hybrid is hidden next to the Baxter Memorial Library and Baxter House Museum in Gorham.

The stamp in this cache was provided by the children's room librarians. They asked my family to hide a geocache near the library to help introduce their younger patrons to the game. We thought that was pretty cool!

This hybrid box is very small and contains only a stamp, logbook and marker (to ink the stamp).

Please, DO NOT TAKE THE STAMP, or anything else, from this box.

The marker will likely freeze in the cold months so bring your own (or ink pad) so you can make an impression of our stamp. The box also contains a bunch of blank index cards for visitors to stamp and take with them if they don't have their own letterbox logbook.

Since this cache is really small, and the stamp and logbook take up most of the box, PLEASE, do not leave any trades/swaps in this box.

We'd love for you to sign the logbook and put your own stamp (store-bought one or quick drawing is great too) in it.

The RobotBunny dad made another of his crafty hiding spots for this cache similar to our Ski Away hybrid. PLEASE be sure to put everything back the way you found it. There are lots of muggles around this box since it's so close to the parking area. There is also a lot of foot traffic at the end of the school day because the high school is behind the library. I would suggest NOT planning your stop here around 2 p.m. during the week...

If you're interested in getting more stamps for your own letterboxing/hybrid logbook, go inside the library to the children's room (downstairs) and ask for clues to the 3 letterboxes hidden there. The RobotBunny Dad made those crafty boxes as well.
