REMEMBER YOU HAVE 2 YEARS TO COMPLETE IT :)
The Challenge: to find a Louisiana cache beginning with each
letter of the alphabet, but with a twist. The state is broken up
into 5 separate areas and you must get 5 caches from each area. Now
the 26th letter can be picked up from any area of your choosing
Needless to say only logged caches you find between 1/1/09 and
12/31/10 can be used. Once the alphabet is complete, posted and
bookmarked, you can then proceed to the final cache "LA Alphabet
Challenge 09/10" Find it, Log it on or before 12/31/10 and Claim
you over earned Smiley!

To complete this cache you must:
1. Create a public bookmark called "LA ABC": Include this cache
in your bookmark(LA Alphabet Challenge 09/10); since you
haven’t found it yet, it doesn’t count – you will
need another “L” cache - Keep your bookmark public for
a minimum of 3 months after completing the challenge - Include one
Louisiana cache you have found for each letter of the alphabet - In
the bookmark cache comments, include the date you found and the
section you found it in the cache code from GC.com. Be sure and
check the box to make this list Public!
Example
Cache Name - Date Found - Code - Section
LA Alphabet Challange 09/10 - 12/25/2009 - GC1P42J - NE
2. Find and Log 26 caches between 1/1/09 and 12/31/10, one for
each letter of the alphabet, according to the rules that have been
laid out below.
3. The Rules of the Game! (no events) The letter must be the
first letter of the cache name.
Examples: - Zebra Stripes = Z - The Zebra's Stripes = T –
Extra Zebras = E - Xtra Zebra Stripes = X - “Blurry Zebra
Stripes” = B - 1 More Striped Zebra = 1, so it doesn’t
count for anything! – One More Zebra Stripe = O A look at
your alphabetized bookmark list will indicate at a glance whether
or not you have each letter.
4. Once you complete your list, and it has been uploaded, you
may then log this cache as found. There is not a physical log to
sign... just a verification of finds.
