Geocache Description:

A quick stop and go. This area will have some muggles at certain times. A popular spot for the high school students to hang "off campus" where they can butt out during school days. After school hours and weekends are the best time for this approach.

Parking on Wilson Drive. No Bushes were hurt while placing this cache so please don't hurt them while searching.


When looking at new cache placements available near me, I couldn't believe that no one had thought about one of Norfolk's tallest musical memorials at 60 feet high.

This memorial is located on the southeast corner of Norfolk Street and Wilson Avenue in Simcoe, Ontario. It was dedicated on June 17th, 1925 in honor of the service men from Norfolk County killed in World War I. The structure is 60 feet in height by 22 feet square. It is constructed of Hagersville limestone and trimmed with carved Indianna stone and is set on a pile foundation. It comprises 23 bells weighing over 8,000 pounds. In 1946, a plaque was added with the names of those killed in World War II.

For those of you interested, you can also log this waymark!
