Geocache Description:



Welcome to the Cacher's Cabaret





This is part of a history tour of Burnaby and beyond. For additional hints and a short history of Vancouver's neon heritage visit

THE DRUNK SKUNK CACHER'S CABARET

The cache is located in Second Narrows Park but I couldn't plant a cache dedicated to neon without taking you to at least one sign.

The co-ordinates are for Helen's Children's wear. The sign is considered one of the best surviving examples of kinetic neon signage in Vancouver. Slightly to the West of the store, there is a heritage marker describing the building's history and the sign itself. You will have to read about Helen and answer the following questions.

What year did Helen originally open her children's wear store next door?
_ _ _ _ The year will be A, B, C and D.

What year was the sign erected?
_ _ _ _ This year will be E, F, G and H.

The co-ordinates for the final cache are: N49 E7.GD3 W123 0A.0HH

**NOTE** The Interpretive Sign and Helen's neon sign were removed. Instead of going to the first waypoint you can do a bit of research from home by following the below link:
