Geocache Description:


Welcome to Peter J. Esposito Park!

Esposito park has a half-mile walking path with fitness stations, a softball/soccer field, tennis courts, a skateboard park, a playground, a picnic area, and restrooms. The Union County Bio-Blitz for 2010 was held here (get link).


This cache is a 3-stage offset multi-cache where you can enjoy Esposito Park and the neighboring Rahway River Greenway.


Go to the dedication plaque at the listed coordinates and answer the following questions to determine the location of the second stage. The cache at the second stage provides the coordinates for the final stage.


Second Stage Coordinates:

N 40° 36.AB0


W 074° 18.CD6


(The last digit in the year of dedication at the bottom of the plaque) - (The first digit in the year of dedication at the bottom of the plaque) = A


(The first digit in the year that the chairwoman served) + (The last digit in the year that the chairwoman served) = B


The first two digits in the year on the Seal at the top of the plaque = CD


Checksum = 24 for the digits A+B+C+D


Total distance out and back is about 1 mile. The final stage is a small lock-n-lock container. Please rehide the cache well.


CONGRATULATIONS TO GEOHUNTER ON FTF!
