Team Gilligan Md adopted this cache Aug 2005. It was placed over
three years ago by OUTSID4EVR & MAJELLIN. We wanted to adopt
the cache rather than have it archived as it was our very first
find back on 12/28/2003. Plus it's one of the older caches in this
area. We still vividly remember the find, Dad (w/GPSr!) and Matt
walking in circles while Amanda being the one to exclaim "I found
it!" We scampered over and thought that it was just too cool that
we found this 'treasure' in the nearby woods. Well, we treasure
every find we have together in this busy life we lead. Amanda's
looking at colleges now as a HS junior and Matt's starting high
school. Dad remembers days as a child walking the stream and
playing little league up on the field, and Matt played rec football
for Parkville up on the field as well. While Jules, now 3, wasn't
on this, our first find, she has been on 23 finds to date whether
she remembers them all or not! She'll keep the 'Team' caching for
years to come! It all started for the kids, but Debbie/Mommy will
help us keep it up too! Afterall, she bought us that GPSr for
Christmas 2003. We still love it!
For the most part the following cache description is as it was
written by OUTSID4EVR & MAJELLIN, we just made a few notes to
bring it current. Thanks again OUTSID4EVR & MAJELLIN...and
Little Monkey!!!
(You can get VERY close to the cache by staying on the well-defined
trails, but ,reception in this park is not very good,
especially in the months of heavy tree cover.) A minimum
of off-trail hiking is needed. I did not see poison ivy near the
cache location (6/15/02). The cache is not in an
area of heavy undergrowth. If you are getting tangled in vines,
briars, or other plant material, you are doing something
wrong! Also, you should not cross any private property or
fences to reach the cache. Don't attempt to get to the cache by
trespassing. (There is a cemetery adjacent to the park. Please park
in one of the several parking lots provided at the park. Do not
attempt to locate the cache by crossing the cemetery.
(The cache is now a watertight camping box - If
you find 'tupperware' you have not found this cache. We replaced
the original pretzel tub as it tended to allow too much moisture.
We were able to salvage a few trinkets from the original cache, and
have added some nice toys for the little ones. Play doh, a slinky,
a small motorcycle, a small 'magic' 8 ball, a necklace, squirt
guns, and a few other things as well. We'll keep this cache in good
shape for the kids. Afterall, that's why we got into caching!)
Please re-hide the cache in the obvious spot that you found it.
Don't make it any easier (or more difficult) for the next cachers.
It is not likely that non-geocachers will stumble across this
cache.
