Ida's NEW Adventure Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

mattopia: I checked today and the cache has gone missing. I am archiving it instead of replacing it to open the area up for someone else to do something creative. If there are no takers soon, I will plan a new adventure for Ida.

Geocache Description:

Enjoy an all new geo-hunt at Ida Rupp Public Library. Please read full cache description before attempting!

This cache is only available during library hours! Please visit the library's website at www.idarupp.org or call them at (419) 732-3212 for current hours.

The coordinates will take you to the front doors of Ida Rupp Public Library in Port Clinton. Enter the library and begin your adventure, but beware, there are many muggles in the area!

You are looking for a small tupperware container large enough for a few small trade items. To find the geocache, you will need to use the library's electronic card catalog to determine what the following people all have in common...

Larry King
Molly Ringwald
Studs Terkel
Kourtney Kardashian

As you continue your adventure, please keep the following things in mind:

  • Please be certain to replace the container exactly as you found it.
  • Library administration is aware of the geocache, but most staff members are not. Please do not ask the library staff for help!
  • The library's electronic card catalog is your best source for help.
  • You will not need to have a library card for this cache, nor will any stage require that any specific items are checked in at the time.
  • And remember, this is a library! Please be quiet, courteous, and do not disturb other guests of the library.

This cache is a followup to the original Ida's Adventure, which I hid in 2005 and went missing during a library re-organization in 2011. Ida's first adventure proved to be a stumper for many people with only 40 finds in a 6 year period. This one should be a bit easier after a re-design. Special thanks to pibteach for helping me to coordinate with library administration!
