Geocache Description:

Replacement cache for My Mystery Unfortunatly all the others with clues were causing problems so have re done this one as a Multi
You Don't need to note The clues anymore

Geocaching in Scouting is becoming more popular recently, so much so that compassing is starting to take a back seat. So to celebrate the 1st Australian Jamboree in Frankston (Only one to be attended by Founder Lord Baden Powell) I have placed a series of caches around the jamboree site.
 

This cache is located in a park that is generally the last landmark left standing from the jamboree (after the burning down of the Grandstand). This area was used for the main campfire hollow.
 
I hope you find this interesting as much as I enjoyed placing them. Being part of 1st Mornington Scout Group. (They were there)
 
Start at original co-ords, where you will find a sign.
AB = Day the jamboree finished January XX 1935
C = A + B
D = Other than Australia what is the other Continent Mentioned in the sign. How many letters in this word.
E = what number is in the Council Phone Number 4 times.
F = the estimated number of scouts and visitors that attended the “Devotional Campfire”. Use the 4th Number XX,XFX
 
Now go to WP2 @
S 38 09.CDE E 145 07 FEC
 
There you will find a plaque to find more information
G = Number of words in the fourth line of the first paragraph
HI = 11,000 Scouts from HI Nations attended.
J = (H+I)+G)
 
Now GZ is @
S 38 09.CEE - E 145 07.FEJ
 
Some will remember this from the original but have a look at the WP’s anyway.
 
Not many scout swaps to begin with but try and make it Scout based when you swap.
Please be careful of the bush it is a little bit off the track.
