The Dating Game (3) boxes, Brooklyn, CT, Rating Easy, 1.25 mile loop. Planted by the NeeDeeps 4-20-03

ADOPTED LETTERBOX
Originally planted by our good friends the NeeDeeps, adopted by us (WWW) on 7-5-08. We will try to keep the clues, stamp, and box location as original as possible while still keeping everything maintained and up to date.

Boxes maintained, clues revised and updated 4-19-09

Directions: From RT.6 turn onto Prince Hill RD. and head to the Michael A. Dragon Memorial Soccer Field.(Don't forget to bring the clues for the Georgia State Stamp.)Prince Hill RD.hits RT.6 twice its like a horse shoe. On RT.6 coming from the Danielson, turn onto Prince Hill Rd. at the traffic light. Go around the bend, up a hill, past one house then turn right and go down the hill and the park will be on your left. If you come in from Brooklyn Center, turn into Prince Hill Rd. and a little ways down the park will be on the right. Pull in and park. Walk past the big rocks (West) up to the tar walk way, and walk past the play ground and the restrooms. As soon as you pass the restrooms take the dirt drive on the right down the small hill to the road. Just before the road, follow the treeline left along the side of the ball field, behind the backstop, to a metal gate on your right(It will be directly across the field from the restrooms west.) Once at the gate go through it or around it to a gravel lot, turn left in the lot and follow the edge of the field just a little. Keeping an eye out across the lot for a small trail head. There's faded blue blazes on the trees at the opening. Enter the trail and you will see a pole with three direction signs on it. Follow the one that says pond. Follow the blue dots down and around to a T intersection with a wide trail. Go left on this trail. You will pass through a stone wall and then come to a muddy area. Keep going on the trail of blue and then the trail will bend to the right and soon you will see the pond on your right with a couple of picnic tables. Then go right over a wooden bridge and through a stone wall and stop. Go left down the stone wall for 8 steps and on the side of the wall in a little cave is box #1. After stamping, go back up to the opening in the stone wall(DO NOT CROSS THE BRIDGE. Instead walk straight up the trail with the faded red blazes for 45 steps and there will be a small path to the left just before a tree with 7 sisters, go up this path. At the top of the hill there will be another picnic table with a medium size oak tree in front of it. Stand between the table and the oak tree and take a reading of 45 degrees, you will see a faint path through the shrubs to a small tree that branches off into 5. Behind that is a skinny little tree. In between the two trees under some sticks is Box #2. After stamping return to the bridge, cross over, take a right, and follow the blue blazes. You will come to a stone wall and the trail will bend to the left, along the wall notice the giant charter oak that pushed the wall out of its way so it could grow. Keep going on the trail and you will bend to the left KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE STONE WALL FOR ANOTHER GIANT CHARTER OAK THAT ALSO MOVED THE WALL SO IT COULD GROW,WHEN YOU SEE THIS TREE STOP. To the left of that oak in the stone wall behind a stone door is Letterbox #3. After stamping, to return, continue on the trail, until you come to a fence surrounding a soccor field on the left. Go to it and follow it to the right. At the treeline, go left between the treeline and the playing fields, until you come to your car.The NeeDEEPS.
