Geocache Description:

Get out and enjoy a nice little walk through the park.`

When Bud of Bud's Exxon gathered his 2005 records for his Accountant, he found that he had made six donations, each for a different amount of money and totaling $1500, to six youth sports teams, including a softball team. Given the data below, can you find how much in sports deductions Bud has for 2005: the contribution to each team and the sport the team plays?

1. Bud donated twice as much to the basketball team as he did to the Kings.
2. The contribution to the Stars was less than that to the football team.
3. For his donation to the soccer team, which was $50 more than he gave the Wolves, the soccer team advertised Bud's Exxon on the back of jersey # 1.
4. The Tigers got $150 more from the service station operator than the baseball team did.
5. The smallest donation of the six was for $50.
6. The Eagles received twice as much money from Bud as the soccer team.
7. Before actually seeing the receipts again, Bud thought that his largest donation had been $600 and that he had given the hockey team $250; he found that the largest contribution was for less than $600 and that the hockey donation was for less than $250.
8. Bud gave the Kings $50 more than he gave the Saints.
9. The largest donation wasn't the one to the youth basketball team.


To find the final coordinates you will need to find what sport each team plays and how much was donated to that team.

(1) Eagles (1) Basketball
(2) Tigers (2) Football
(3) Saints (3) Softball
(4) Kings (4) Baseball
(5) Stars (5) Soccer
(6) Wolves (6) Hockey


Use the value listed above for each team and sport to solve the needed coordinates.

Remember your Order of Operations

AA = Eagles * $ / (Sport + 8) – 3
BB = (Tigers * Sport) / $ * 525
CC = ((Saints + Sport) * $ - 45) / 5
DDD = Kings + Sport + 13 + $
EE = $ / (Stars + Sport) + 4
FFF = (Wolves + 65) + ($ * Sport)

N AA° BB.0CC
W DDD° EE.FFF

North Cheksum = 23 West Checksum = 23
