THIS BOX HAS BEEN RE-LOCATED TO THE SAINT PATRICK PARISH/CHURCH RIGHT UP THE HILL FROM SAINT PATRICK SCHOOL...

This box was carved and planted in honor of our favorite Catholic school in Tacoma!

We previously had this box hidden in the hedges at the top of the hill from St. Patrick school, but we had to relocate it because of some issues... It is now located at Saint Patrick Church, which is up the hill directly across from St. Patrick school. When you see the parking lot, you can either continue driving up the hill on the right side of the church, turn left down the street between the church main entrance and a block of houses, or behind the parking lot in the "alley". If you choose to park near the main entrance, in front of the church... see clue number 1, if you choose to park in the actual parking lot or the small parking lot behind the courtyard with a wooden gazebo in the middle, choose clue number 2. (.....actually, the two clues are identical except for the first two sentences, which tell the most straight-forward way of entering the courtyard from either parking spot.....)

1.) Exit your car and head toward the stone arch with a few stone steps below it. Near these steps, you should see a handicap ramp to the left... Go down these stairs and straight ahead should be a wooden gazebo. On your right, should be another stone arch with a small stone cross placed up on a stone wall behind the arch. This is also a "meditation" or "reflection" area. If you choose to pray to God, please stop and do. :) Head toward this stone cross and directly behind the cross are four tall, green bushes. They are in a straight line. Look at the second bush from the left. In order to retrieve this box, you must climb up onto the stone wall and reach into the bottom half of the bush. (It may be helpful to have a younger one to do this). When getting this box, please be cautious of Father/Priest who lives in the house right next to the courtyard. Also, try not to search before or after church hours... (Saturday 5:30 P.M - 7:00 P.M; Sunday 7:00 A.M - 12:00 P.M; Thursday 8:40-10:15 A.M) *Just please be CAREFUL of church-attending families and people!!!! :)

2.) Exit your car and look for two entrances through black gates between small bushes. One is on the right, and one on the far left. Go through one of these entrances and look to either your right or left, you should see a wooden gazebo... Look for a stone arch with a small stone cross placed up on a stone wall behind the arch. This is also a "meditation" or "reflection" area. If you choose to pray to God, please stop and do. :) Head toward this stone cross and directly behind the cross are four tall, green bushes. They are in a straight line. Look at the second bush from the left. In order to retrieve this box, you must climb up onto the stone wall and reach into the bottom half of the bush. (It may be helpful to have a younger one to do this). When getting this box, please be cautious of Father/Priest who lives in the house right next to the courtyard.

Happy Hunting, and may the luck of the Irish be with you!
