Geocache Description:

Welcome to Andy Pafko Memorial Park.  It is named in memory of Boyceville’s pro baseball player, “Handy” Andy Pafko. Andy played for a number of teams and was an All-Star for four seasons. The park has a ball diamond, picnic area and a new children’s play area. This is a family friendly cache with trade items for the kids. After finding the cache stay for a picnic and let the kids play. 

 


 

This is a two part multi-stage cache. At stage one you will find the answers to the questions below. These will give you the coordinates for the second stage. In memory of Handy Andy you will be “hitting one outta the park.” The second stage is at a nearby church, within walking distance. Please be respectful if there is a service going on and come back later to hunt the cache. Please rehide exactly as you found it. Be aware that there can be a high concentration of muggles during ballgames. There is a $10 Cenex gift card for the first to find.
