Geocache Description:

March 9 2016, I found that the first part was missing and replaced it with a little twist. I have now added that you have to get information from the three signs at the old Knox School that is near by, the coordinate near the signs N42°39.629 W074°02.699

Welcome to my first cache.  The multi cache is located in Thompsons Lake State Park.  It seemed to me that so many people place caches in near by John Boyd Thacher State Park so I figured it was time for Thompsons Lake State Park deserved another one.  You can park at either the Emma Treadwell Thacher Nature Center N 42°39.294 W 074°02.593 or you could park next to the historic schoolhouse.  The Meadow Loop is about 1mile in length, easy walking but can be muddy in spots. Have fun with the cache! If you want to try this cache in the winter go ahead but please cover your tracks in the snow. Permit # JBT 14-1 Congratulations to Timpat FTF!
5/3/2014 Nice to see that this cache has made it two years, since this was the first cache I ever placed. Lets see how many more years it lasts.

3/9/2016 Now that I have modified this cache you will need to get six numbers from three signs at the old Knox School in order for you to find the final. The rest of the final coordinate is in the first container.

Historic sign : get answer for D and F, for F you will have to add one to the number you find.

Knox School District # D was formed in 182F

Sign about the camp: get answer for E

how many letters in the missing word: "...they reused several CCC __________ ; the ring..."

Sign about The Restoration of Knox No.5: you will have to get the answers to A, B, and C

A= "200A: Volunteers hung windows, a new door, and painted the interior..."

B= "200B: Additional funding from Selkirk Cogen, Home Depot,..."

C= "...much as it did in the _9_0's..." (subtract the missing digits from the nine)
