This Cache will bring you to Nundah's "Boyd Park" a really well appointed local space equipped with plenty of amentities, a dog-off-leash area, bathrooms, fitness equipment, basketball court, barbecues/picnic area, giant chess board and cricket pitch.

- Nundah & Districts Historical Society
- Nundah Library
- Nundah/Northgate RSL
- Nundah/Nortgate Scouts
- St Johns Ambulance.
Named in honour of Major Wiliam Alexander Jenyns Boyd and Mrs Isabella Boyd.
William Alexander Jenyns Boyd (1842–1928) was a journalist and schoolmaster in Australia. He was admired for his "upright bearing and extensive learning".
This cache is accessible from a few different paths and includes a very small amount of needing to go "off trail" but for that reason is unfortunatley not wheelchair friendly. You'll find it may be busy during school pick up and drop off for parking but should hopefully be a nice quiet spot most of the time.
The caches name comes from an overheard shout of a basketball game player in the very nearby half court. My partner and I found it hilarious and now everytime we walk by this basketball area we cant help but wonder if "Tony" is there, did he get his BBQ Chicken? How did he get the nickname?
Please bring own pen.
**update** had to update the co-ordinates as it was showing inside the dog park (which it is not, the hint indicates its proximity but not inside) a short stroll "off trail" is all that's needed.
