This letterbox is part of the GO and Be Active! program in York County, PA. It will be available from June 1, 2016 – August 14, 2016. Further details about the program may be found at www.goyork.org.

The GO and Be Active! program requires you to search for up to 30 “activities” – wooden posts with engraved plates on them, instead of a traditional letterbox and stamp. Please carefully rub the impression (with a colored pencil or crayon) from the engraved plate onto your GO and Be Active! rubbing sheet, available at any York County Library.

This letterbox is located at William H. Kain County Park-Lake Redman and should be accessed from the parking area off Hess Farm Road. GO York! level of difficulty = Easy.

• Start at the parking area and walk toward the mowed grass trail. Continue beyond the wooden picnic table and onto trail 5.
• As you walk along trail 5, you will follow the edge of Lake Redman. The lake should be on your right and the woods on your left.
• Walk about 400 yards and you will find an intersection in the trail. Make a right. You should be walking toward the lake.
• You will come to a wooden deck that goes out into the water. Keep walking across the wooden deck.
• Stop and see if you can spot any kind of birds flying over Lake Redman.
• Continue following the wooden deck until you see the interpretative sign titled “Wonderful Wetlands, Natural Resource Treasure.” The rubbing plate is located next to this sign.
• Continue following the wooden deck until it turns into a gravel path.
• Walk to the wooden bulletin board and make a left back onto trail 5.
• Continue following trail 5 straight back along Lake Redman. This trail will take you back to the parking area and your vehicle.
