Geocache Description:

Donner:
 
Donner is your average young reindeer.  He gets B's in the Reindeer Academy, has a medium sized group of friends, and is in the middle of the Team when pulling Santa's sleigh.  Donner is ABOVE average when he's on the football field.  He is the quarterback for the Academy



Donner is in charge of the reindeers eating habits.  He needs to make sure they all stay in shape.
 
Donner starts a training camp every year on Nov. 8 at which over 200 reindeer try out for a spot on Santa's team.
 
Last year Vixen got too heavy during the summer and almost lost her spot to a rookie.  But with hard work at training camp, she was able to keep her spot on Santa's team.
 
Donner runs a tough training camp.  Every day he has the reindeer lift weights for 2 hours, run 50 miles and do 500 push-ups.  Donner started this training camp back in 1961 because Comet and Cupid were so out of shape at the end of the summer that they couldn't pull Santa's sleigh and lost their spots that year to two other reindeer:  Ralph and Rodney.  No one knows about the swap so don't tell.

Bring your own pen.
 
Look for the rest of the Reindeer family foraging around the area.  Can you spot them all?

Parking areas include the old entrance to Dairyland on the North side, or off of 104th Ave to the East.  If you park on 158, be extremely careful and use your flashers.
