GMC #9: Honoring Our Veterans
About This Location.
Welcome to the little town of Farmington. If you blink, you'll miss it. Despite being small, it has a ton of heart and history. Take a minute to walk through downtown Farmington. This cache will take you to a small veterans memorial. Marion County has a lot of really nice memorials for our veterans, but this one is often overlooked. So, here is your reason to stop and check it out! Note: The image above is at the Vietnam veterans memorial in Fairmont, you are searching for a much smaller monument.
About This Cache.
This patriotic cache reminds us of those who have gone before and sacrificed so we can enjoy the freedoms we have today. This cache stands tall next to this monument. I hope it rises to the occasion and makes you smile.
THANKS FOR VISITING!
