There is a web site for National Trails Day events in Arizona.  It's at: http://www.azstateparks.com/partnerships/trails/participate.html  Below is what they have to say about Acker park.  They don't specifically mention Caching, but they do mention a search and rescue organization.  Could there be a connection?  :-)

Subject: [Az-Geocaching] Prescott Cache Hunt

Hi! ~~~Read on the Prescott Courier's front page tonight that there will be a Cache Hunt in Acker Park on Saturday at 10:30am.  This is part of the celebration of National Trail Day.  Other things going on there all day.
Paper didn't say who was 'hosting" the Cache Hunt, just that it was happening.  Anyone know more about it?  As far as I know there is just one cache hidden in that park. ~~~AzUC
