Good
news & bad news -
The good news ... Governor Joe Kernan signed a document to
transfer roughly 1,000 acres of prime riverfront property
from the Army to the State's Department of Natural
Resources for Charlestown State Park. The addition
make the park Indiana's third largest state park, after
Brown County and Versailles State Parks. Indiana DNR has enacted geocaching policies for
caches placed in Indiana State Parks.
The
bad news ... management at Charlestown State Park has
removed all geocaches hidden at the park. Rangers at
this park have decided they will allow 5 caches in this
5,100 acres park. A request form must be submitted
for approval before any caches can be hidden. To
date, none of the caches requested have been
approved.

Milestones -
The 2005 InKy Crew North Carolina trip wasn't without a few
milestones. A fourtheen member crew of the Southern Indiana and
Louisville area invaded North & South Carolina on a four day caching
and hiking spree. Milestones for the trip were Deermark, 4,000th
find, Lumberjack Tom, 2,000th find and PrairePartners 2,000 find.
Special congratulations to PrairePartners, who started caching in May,
2004. That's right, 2,000 finds in less than a year!
