Soccer Boy can be found at Harkness State Park, Waterford, Connecticut. It's an easy, quick, kid friendly hike to find this box; it was placed by Connor a 7 year old soccer player.

To get to Harkness State Park:
From Rt. 2: Rte. 2 east Take exit 20 in Colchester for Rte. 85 south to New London. In New London, take a right onto Rte. 1 (Boston Post Rd.) and then a left onto Ocean Ave., a right onto Niles Hill Rd., and a left onto Dimmock Rd.

From 95 S: Get off @ exit 81. At the end of the ramp, turn left onto access road and turn left at the stoplight onto Cross Road. Continue to the intersection with Rte.1. Turn left onto Rte. 1 and continue to the traffic light at Avery Lane (Rte. 213). Turn right onto Avery Lane and follow to the park, about 3.5 miles. Avery Lane will become Great Neck Rd. The park will be on your right.

From 95 N: Get off at exit 75. Bear right at the end of the exit; you will be on Rte.1. Go four miles to the light at Avery Lane (Rt. 213), turn right and follow to the park. Avery Lane will become Great Neck Rd. The park will be on your right.

Harkness does charge a fee in the summer months.

NOTE: This park is popular and often crowded, so please try to be discreet and rehide the boxes thoroughly--thanks!

Park in the first parking lot on your left. This is the clubhouse...

Head on to the oval shaped, tree-lined, paved path, away from the water.

As you approach 12 o'clock on this giant clock, just past a bench on your left, find another paved path, lined with trees on both sides and a stone wall on your right. Stop to look at the yellow farm house on your left. Next to the house is a rusty old mower. Directly across in the stone wall is Soccer Boy's Box!⚽️
