Geocache Description:

Thank you, Washington Boro veterans and all veterans, for your service to our country.


This park was the scene for an important lesson to my kids in 2005 while searching for our first multi-cache. The first stage hidden here directed us to the other side of the Susquehanna River. No, you do not follow the arrow on the GPS.

The posted coordinates bring you to the Veterans monument where there are two plaques. Find the one honoring Veterans rather than Lions. Use the day of the month that plaque was placed as X in the coordinates for the final. Add the digits of the year that plaque was placed and add 2; use that as Y in the coordinates for the final. The final is visible with your eyes at N 39 59.4X8 W 76 28.1Y1.

Congratulations to MidnightsRaiders for the FTF.
