Geocache Description:

Cache is not at the posted coordinates. To find the cache, answer the questions below.


The Novi Civic Center Campus is made up of the Police Station, City Hall, Novi High School, Novi Library, Fuerst Park, and Ella Mae Power Park. We will visit all of these areas to get the coordinates for the cache, and to learn a little bit about Novi.

Except for the High School. We will stay away from that one. We don't want to cause any security issues.
