Geocache Description:


I have been looking for a place locally to place a larger cache, and finally found one!
I am not a member of this group but they have done some interesting things, historically and I was surprised to find out about this, and hope you will be also.

The Fraternal Order of Eagles, An international, non-profit Organization, unites fraternally in the spirit of liberty, truth, justice and equality, to makehuman life more desirable by lessening its ills, and by promoting peace, prosperity,gladness and hope.

During an Eagles Memorial Service in 1904, Frank E. Hering’s keynote address is recognized as the “First Public Plea” for a day to honor mothers. It was through the Eagles that the concept for Mother’s Day first spread across the country.

When President Franklin Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act in 1935,he presented the pen to the Eagles for their “vision and courage” in making it
happen.

When President Lyndon B. Johnson signed this bill that ended age discrimination in the work place, he presented the pen to the Eagles and said “The Eagles started this whole idea.”

When President Johnson signed the Medicare bill he presented the pen to the Eagles and said “For your energetic and dedicated espousal of social justices…and the compassionate treatment of the sick and disabled.”

The cache is an ammo box, filled with goodies I hope everyone enjoys.

Please park only on the blacktop portion of the parking lot, not on any of the gravel portions of the area. The walk to the cache will still be a very short one. Do not cross any fences, the fenced area does not contain the cache.

Please only search for this between the hours of 6AM and Midnight, as the area is patrolled at night.

Permission to place this cache has been given by the Board of Trustees.

FTF prize is “my favorite” clock/thermometer, with batteries included. Hope you enjoy it.
