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 Farquhar Park and should be accessed from the parking lot off Madison Avenue. GO York! level of difficulty = Easy.

• From the parking lot, turn around and walk in the opposite direction of the pond.
• Carefully cross the street and make a right onto the paved path. The park will now be on your left and the street on your right.
• At the first intersection, make a left, walking past the bathrooms.
• Continue walking straight. You will pass basketball and tennis courts on your right.
• At the next intersection make a left.
• Continue walking until you come to another intersection. Walk straight through this intersection.
• At the next intersection make a sharp right.
• The post you are seeking is by a tree near the bench.
• To return to your vehicle, turn around and retrace your steps.
