This is cache eigthy ninth in the Chuck Co. (Charles County) NYTPT.
To log this cache, you must first complete an All-Star day. What is an All Star day you ask? An All Star day is a single calendar day (12:00 AM to 11:59 PM) in which you find a combination of caches with all nine “star” rating values (1.0/1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0/3.5/4.0/4.5/5.0). The “star” ratings can be either the difficulty or the terrain or a mix of the two. A single cache can be counted for 2 of the star ratings. As an example, a cache rated as a 1.5/2.0, can count for the 1.5 and the 2.0. So, the challenge can be completed with as few as 5 caches or as many as 9 caches.
Once you have completed the challenge, you can find and log the cache online. On your online log, please include the date of the day you completed the challenge requirements and a list of the caches and star ratings that the caches represent.
Here are a few rules for completing the challenge;
• All qualifying caches must be found and logged on a single calendar day
• Any cache type can be used.
• There is no date limitation on when the All Star day occurs.
• You cannot count this Challenge cache as part of the All Star day.
(We got this idea from this cache out in Kentucky SherpaRon's All-Star Day Challenge)

2. Replace all caches the way you found them.
3. Stealth is needed.
4. Not all caches are the same. Some are easy and some are hard.
5. Bring tweezers, a screwdriver, a pen and dry clothes/shoes (you might get wet on a cache or two)

6. If you are caching in a group, please use a group name for the day as to not fill up the logs.
7. Please cross the road at the cross walks for safety reasons. When we placed all the caches, we used the cross walks.

9. And most importantly be safe, have fun, and practice responsible caching! Enjoy!
