It's April--go to the Valley Garden. If you do a search for "Greenville DE," 5 of the first 6 boxes listed are there. (One of Dancing Bat's Grateful Dead boxes might still exist too; I'll message you.) Beautiful location, variety of planters.

Powderfinger is worth a special trip. It was planted by hexacat, who did some really awesome boxes. Plus it's at the Hagley Museum, where the DuPont company started. So there's a fee but you get to tour the mansion & the company's original offices, see how the workers lived & exhibits on how they made gunpowder.

Alapocas Woods has FishMan's Cliffhanger series & several fun boxes by geckospot. And maybe something older. ;)

Brandywine Creek State Park is a fertile spot too. 3 or 4 good planters there.... :)

In the Newark area I'd recommend Year of the Rat. It's not actually in NCC, but near enough as makes no difference. :)

There are a bunch of boxes at Iron Hill, and some at Middle Run.... if you go to Middle Run, try to bring a trail map with you, as the one at the kiosk at the parking lot is a bit hard to read.

Hi, I'm looking for someone who would mail a post card from Delaware to

Quest Scouts

The front of the post card must have the name of the state of Delaware as part of the art work. This is for a quest scout challenge. TIA

Sending a note to Sheba and Psychiker would probably be a good place to start. They are both active boxers in the area you are looking at.

Stamp-a-Day

While not an official letterboxing event, I thought those local to Delaware might like a stamp-filled night out.

The Delaware Contemporary (200 S. Madison St., Wilmington, DE) is hosting Delaware Fun-a-Day Oct. 6-8. 180 artists are hard at work making all kinds of projects, one day at a time for the show. For my part, I am carving a Stamp-a-Day and will have all 30 stamps, ink and paper to make impressions at the show. I'll be there for the reception on Friday night. Anyone who comes, finds me, and mentions letterboxing can exchange signature stamps with me, too.

For more information, visit http://www.delawarefunaday.com .

Moderators, sorry for the double-post!

Hi guys! I'm staying in Berlin, MD (just minutes from Delaware) for a few weeks and have introduced a friend to letterboxing. I'd really like for him to meet some other boxers. I'm from Texas, with our famous TALE events and was wondering if y'all do anything like that up here? Or maybe just meet and greets? Something? Anything? ;-)

Rebiccola and I are doing an event in November at Camp HIghroad in Middleburg, VA.

https://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.php?eventId=4104

Also, once the school year starts, I will become pretty free again and always up for boxing outings. I am down near the 495 beltway loop outside DC. But there are lots of boxes in between us to find.

Have your friend AQ mail me.

There I was tinkering with the listing for Lenape Indian (trying to mark the 2nd box as unavailable so folks don’t go up the “rock scramble”), and suddenly it’s on the Newest Letterboxes list. Whoops

Just a heads up, I’ve pulled all of the Into the Woods boxes at BCSP for maintenance. I also edited the clues for The Mirror Crack’d and Brandywine M&M, and added a second box on the west side of the creek. I haven’t checked on anyone else’s stuff there but plan to do that in the coming weeks.
Have fun, be safe!

Hi everybody,
For those that didn't make it to the A Day at the Fair event last month, please double check stamp availability. I pulled a bunch of boxes ahead of yesterday's storm (which totally skipped us). These boxes will find new homes on higher ground but are currently hanging out in the A/C at my house.
