Little Dog Statue Missing from Top of Pilkey Pt. Road

I placed a small cement statue of a Pomeranian dog at the top of Pilkey Pt. Road as part of a game called Geocaching, and it has gone missing. It says on the bottom of the thing to please not remove it, and that it's an official game piece. It's necessary to locate the actual cache nearby which is the point of the game.

This also serves as a memorial for a pet I had, and by removing it you're not only ruining a harmless game, but you've stolen something that has a big sentimental value to me. 

If anyone has seen this little statue around or has it in their possession, please return it to where it belongs at the pullout on Pilkey Point Rd.

We have access to some soil material next door to the cemetery to use for this. Therefor wheel barrows , shovels, pick axes, hard rakes will be essential tools to bring.

Soup and buns will be provided for lunch.

Please contact Suzanne 250-246-9965 and let me know if you plan on coming.

Many hands make light work!
