GO and Build a Better World! - Farm LbNA #71362 (ARCHIVED)

This letterbox is part of the GO and Build a Better World! program in York County, PA. It will be available from June 3, 2017 to August 20, 2017. Further details about the program may be found at www.goyork.org.

The GO and Build a Better World! program requires you to search for up to 30 “landmarks” – wooden posts with engraved plates on them, instead of a traditional letterbox and stamp. Please use a colored pencil or crayon to carefully rub the impression onto your GO and Build a Better World! rubbing sheet, available for free at any York County Library.

This letterbox is located at Spoutwood Farm Center in Codorus Township and is on private property. Permission has been granted to place the letterbox. Please be courteous to the landowners and organization. GO York! level of difficulty = Easy.
