Geocache Description:

Welcome to Wilkinson Park! This cache will take you on a fact-finding tour of the area. The puzzle itself is fairly easy; the CC itself may be a bit harder to find. Bring a pen and some scrap paper for calculations, and enjoy! Oh, and beware of muggles!

This small park contains several interesting memorials, the most prominent of which is named "Liberty Arming the Patriot." This monument is where you should start your tour. This should be a simple "plug in the numbers" puzzle; enjoy!

You will need to know:
A = the year at the bottom of the plaque on "Liberty Arming the Patriot"
B = the year St. Paul's Church was founded
C = the number of steps (on either side) from the sidewalk to the front doors of Park Place Congregational Church
D = the number of single (not double) benches in the park
E = on the rear of "Liberty Arming the Patriot," the number of men with mustaches
F = the number of columns in front of Park Place Congregational church
G = the number of Korean cities shown on the front of the Korean War memorial

Calculate:
(A-B) - (C*D) = X
E+F+G = Y

Solve:
North coords - X
West coords + Y
