638. Wilcox Park Veterans Day Boxes (5) - Stroll
Location: Westerly, RI
A stroll around one of New England's largest "village greens" behind the library in downtown Westerly, RI
1. Sit-Still Bunny
2. The Bandstand
3. Dinosaur Tree
4. Frog by the Pond
5. Fish by the Fountain
These stamps will only be available from 9:30 to 11:30 AM on November 12th during the Westerly/Pawcatuck Veterans Day parade and ceremonies, since they probably wouldn't last much longer than that in this park anyway.
1. Sit-Still Bunny - Find statue of "Runaway Bunny" and go about 100 steps at 75 deg to higher north side of multi-beech tree.
Stamp sits quietly on backside of small "bunny stone".
2. The Bandstand - Find where we play a couple of our annual summer band concerts.
Go 310 deg from the middle of the gazebo and look behind the wooden post for a small round speckled stone.
3. Dinosaur Tree - Find ancient deciduous evergreen "triangle-shaped" dawn redwood tree in hidden corner of park by greenhouse.
Look in triangular cubby on western/sidewalk side of its large clubfoot for a small dark triangle stone.
4. Frog by the Pond - Find long stone bench northeast up the hill from the pond.
Sit facing the pond below, then reach down the left side of the left stone leg.
5. Fish by the Fountain - Find largest ginkgo tree in southeast corner of the park (across the street from the Granite Theater) for a small fish-shaped rock on its northeast side.
