This letterbox is part of the GO and Experiment! program. It will be available from June 1, 2014 - August 17, 2014. Further details about the program may be found at www.goyork.org.

Through the GO and Experiment! program, you will be searching for "scientific terms" – wooden posts with engraved plates on them – instead of a traditional letterbox and stamp. Please carefully rub the impression from the engraved plate into your GO and Experiment! rubbing page, available at any York County library.

The letterbox is located at Spring Valley County Park and may be accessed from the Crossroads parking area. GO York level of difficulty = Moderate

 From the parking area, walk toward the road and, once there, turn left, and continue on the gravel road.
 You shouldn’t walk far before you cross a metal bridge. Stop and look for fish before continuing along the gravel road.
 After walking about a quarter mile you should pass by a large tree on your left and cross over a wooden bridge.
 After crossing the wooden bridge, continue straight on the gravel road until you arrive at an old road that turns off on your left.
 Pass between two large rocks and cross another metal bridge. The post you seek should be on your left once you cross the bridge.
 To return to your vehicle, cross back over the bridge and follow the gravel road back the way you came.
