This theme cache only has room for the logbook and a deck of cards - almost. The deck contains only 51 cards- to log this cache you MUST replace the missing card with one from a deck with a different back design, and take a different card (from the orginal deck). That way there are always 51 cards in the deck. Don't worry about bridge or poker sized cards, any type is fine. Please note, this is not a card exchange cache, for that you must go to this cache.
Because the point in finding this cache is to swap cards around, the following "rules" must be followed. A copy of these rules is also in the cache.
1. Bring an old deck with you to the cache.
As you will not know what card to leave until you get to the cache, you need to bring a full deck. Being that you will be left with a "broken" deck (i.e.. missing one card) use an old or cheap deck.
2. Find the missing card.
The list with MY deck should list the card that is currently missing (i.e.. the last one on the list). Make sure that card is not in MY deck. This is to make sure the last finder did everything right. If the last card listed is not the missing card, you will have to go thru the entire deck to figure out which one is missing. There should only be one card missing at a time. And there should be NO duplicate cards.
3. Replace the missing card.
Find the card that is missing from MY deck in YOUR deck. Sign that card (from YOUR deck) and place it in MY deck.
4. Remove a different card from MY deck.
Take any other card that isn't signed from MY deck. Write the name of this card on the list. Take this card with you.
5. Log online.
You online log MUST contain the card you replaced (i.e.. the one you signed), but must NOT contain the one you took - part of the fun is not knowing what card you need to replace. Online logs not following these rules will be deleted (i.e.. logs without card swaps will be deleted).
Example: If the list says the Queen of Hearts is missing, check MY deck to make sure there isn't a Queen of Hearts in it. Take the Queen of Hearts from YOUR deck, sign it and place in MY deck. Take another card from MY deck (say the Ace of Spades) and write that card on the list. Somewhere in you online log mention you left the Queen of Hearts, do NOT mention the Ace of Spades.
There is no parking at the park, but just a few feet west is a small street where you can park. There is no need for heavy bushwhacking, though it can't be reached from the grass. A few small brambles in the area shouldn't be a problem.
