Thank you to Laura and Lindsay, the series is back! Thanks girls, appreciate the help!

**Ink is missing in box #4 & #5 - be sure you have some with you.

S’More Fun is a series of 5 letterboxes. The stamps were hand carved by Marlboro Girl Scouts and planted so that you could enjoy two of our favorite things – letterboxing and S’Mores!

Start out at Ghiloni Park, Concord Road, Marlborough MA. Park your car in the rear of the lot. Walk towards the track and you will see a plaque under a tree which says ‘Joseph DiRico Memorial Field’. To the right of the memorial, start walking down the narrow path keeping the soccer field on your left. The path will wind around the field and take you through the trees. At the intersection, go straight across and follow the paved path. At the third curve in the path, stop and take 11 steps off the path into the woods (straight ahead). You will see a two sister tree. To the right of the tree is a stone wall - look over on the other side and you will find Box #1 – Fire. Stamp in, hide well and return to the paved trail – on to box #2.

Continuing walking along the trail, on your right, you will pass 3 picnic tables. At the break in the stone wall, go off the trail to your left, walking into the woods with the stone wall on your left. Go 15 steps from the next break in wall and find Box #2 - Marshmallow hiding in the wall. Stamp in, hide well and return to paved trail and continue on your way.

Keep walking the paved trail; you will pass a large rock on your left and then a three trunk tree on your right. Keep your eyes out for a path on your right. Enter the path and continue until you see a large downed tree on your right. In front of the downed tree, there is a three sister tree, box # 3 – Chocolate is hiding inside. Stamp in, hide well and return to the paved trail.

Heading down the hill, the paved trail takes you left, at the cross road, head left up the hill to the orange marker on your right. Take 9 steps forward to the rock in the path and look to the left behind the flat sloping rock to find Box #4 - Cracker. Stamp in, hide well and head back down the hill to the paved trail and start walking left.

Continue on the paved path until you reach a cluster of rocks on your left. Look behind the largest rock and you will find Box #5 - the S'More! Stamp in, hide well.

This is the end of your adventure. You can continue on the paved path and take a left up the hill back to the parking lot or turn and go back the way you came.

Marlboro Girl Scout Troop 72863 sure hopes you enjoyed making your S’More and you had lots of fun!
