Geocache Description:

Do not park in the school lots. No parking along road during school hours. Entry from the Whitnall Nature Pod pathways.

Back in the 70's, when I went to college, I learned a few useful things: the colors: ROY G BIV, how to play sheepshead, and a game called spoons.

This is how you play spoons:

Everyone sits around a table. In the center, within reach of all, place a spoon for every player, less one. Deal 4 cards to each player. The object is to get 4 of a kind. The dealer takes the top card from the deck. If he wants it, he discards one from his hand to the next person. If he doesn't want it, it is passed to the next person. The next person then gets to look at a card and either keeps it or passes it on to the next person. Pretty soon everyone is looking and passing cards all around the table. When a person gets the 4 of a kind, very sneakily they take one of the spoons from the table. They can keep passing cards until someone notices that they have a spoon. At that point everyone can take a spoon. The last person left doesn't get one and is out. The next round remove one spoon from the table. The game ends when there are two players left and one of them gets a spoon. The Winner!

I have started the cache out with some spoons that I collected back in my younger days.
