The geocache hidden at the posted coordinates is a regular geocache, however, it is also part of the 2015 (Phase III) Spring Grove GeoTour (SGGT), a project designed to promote the many businesses and other places of interest in the Spring Grove Area. The SGGT utilizes the growing interest in geocaching to assist both residents and visitors to the area in learning more about the unique attractions.

Caches placed in 2013 (Phase I) are delineated by SGGT. Originally 32 caches were placed and 25 were required to redeem the coin. These caches and coins are still available!

Caches placed in 2014 (Phase II) are delineated by SGGT14. Beginning with this year was a multiyear coin that will require cachers to complete each new phase to complete the multiyear coin. Originally 16 caches were placed and 13 were required to redeem the coin. These caches and coins are still available!
