Geocache Description:

A book exchange cache close to the Yellow Head Highway (Hwy 16) between Marshall, Sk and Lloydminster, SK/AB

This is a cache for those who are avid readers or maybe those who are on a long road trip and need fresh reading material. :)

Please use this cache as a book exchange, meaning if you take one please leave one. Please leave pocket books that are suitable for a general audience but we request that no other trade items be left. If you have no books to trade please feel free to TNLNSL.

The cache is located at the Jack Kemp Memorial Trout Pond. They have a parking area, an outhouse, picnic tables, garbages etc. Please do not park on the adjacent private propert even though it may be tempting. This area is just off of Hwy 16. Please be stealthy and avoid been detected by muggles.

The cache container is a blue Rough Neck Rubbermaid Tote measuring 40.6 x 27.3 x 17.8 cm. We've placed it in a green garbage bag. We aren't sure how weather tight the cache container is so all the books are in zip lock bags.

Please do the same with any books that you drop off in trade. We've left some extra spare bags in the cache too. The original contents of this cache are:
-Vancouver Nightmare by Eric Wilson
-Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopy Pants by Dav Pikey
-Sparrow Lake by Carol Beach York
-Flabbergasted by Ray Blackston
-Blink by Ted Dekker
-Cyclops by Clive Cussler
-Treasure by Clive Cussler
-The Teastament by John Grisham
-8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter by W.Bruce Cameron
-The Runaway Quilt by Jennifer Chiaverini
-Alternate Beauty by Andrea Rains Waggener
-The Dirty Girls Social Club

Although not a prerequisite for books for this cache the books we've placed are registered with BookCrossing.com and have an ID number inside the front cover. This makes them the book equivalent of a travel bug and their movements can be logged at BookCrossing.com Please take the time to log the book at www.bookcrossing.com and consider joining.

What is BookCrossing, you ask?
It's a global book club that crosses time and space. It's a reading group that knows no geographical boundaries. Do you like free books? How about free book clubs?. Well, the books our members leave in the wild are free... but it's the act of freeing books that points to the heart of BookCrossing. Book trading has never been more exciting, more serendipitous, than with bookCrossing. Our goal, simply, is to make the whole world a library. BookCrossing is a book exchange of infinite proportion, the first and only of its kind. The "3 Rs" of BookCrossing... Read a good book (you already know how to do that) Register it here (along with your journal comments), get a unique BCID(BookCrossing ID number), and label the book Release it for someone else to read (give it to a friend, leave it on a park bench, donate it to charity, "forget" it in a coffee shop, etc.), and get notified by email each time someone comes here and records journal entries for that book. And if you make Release Notes on the book, others can Go Hunting for it and try to find it! Sounds easy, right? Well it is. It's also a fascinating exercise in fate, karma, or whatever you want to call the chain of events that can occur between two or more lives and one piece of literature. Oh, and we should mention, it's absolutely free and absolutely private, too.
