This cache has been archived.

drjinx: With the new skate park in College Station, I think this location has become less interesting.

Geocache Description:

Beware of Muggles!!!

If you are lucky, you will come to find this cache at a time when there are kids in the skate park practicing some tricks that will knock your socks off. Of course, this may also prevent you from finding the cache, but hopefully the trip will be worth it anyhow.


Please use stealth and common sense in finding this cache. There are times when there may be too many muggles around enjoying the park for you to be able pull this cache out of its hiding place without being noticed. Early morning or even after dark are the safest times to try for this cache, but you aren't likely to see skateboard tricks early or very late.

From http://www.bryantx.gov/departments/default.asp?name=pf_williamson_park:
This park is home to the area's first skateboard park. Skateboard ramps were installed on an old tennis court slab in 2003. The ramps are fenced and lighted. The park is located on Williamson Drive, on the shores of the Municipal Lake across from the Municipal Golf Course. The park also has restrooms, two picnic pavilions with BBQ grills, a basketball court and a large playground unit.

Enjoy the beautiful old oak trees and maybe you will have a kid or a fun-loving adult with you who will enjoy the playground equipment. There is a very interesting see-saw type toy that I didn't get to try since I was in the park solo. If you get to try it, please let me know how much fun it is in your log!

The initial inventory includes a Sacajawea dollar and a Susan B, and two trackables, one of which is a FTF in Bryan/College Station geocoin. The first finder is encouraged to take a trackable (or both) and a dollar coin; the 2nd to find gets the remaining dollar coin and any remaining trackables.

Congrats to NativTxn who had an inside track on FTF, and Wigglebot for the FTF after the cache was formally published!
