Geocache Description:

The final stage of this puzzle cache is near the Recreation Center in Camden. The listed coordinates are for the entrance to the center. There's plenty of parking near the ball fields, the hide being a short distance away. Do not park at the Amtrak station or attempt to reach this cache from the railroad tracks, as there is no access from that direction. The train station and railroad tracks are off limits. This hide is close to, but not accessible from Woodward Park.

First, solve this word elimination puzzle so that only one word remains in each column. Eliminate the following words:

1. Types of birds, in column C and row 3
2. Things that hold water, in column E and row 6
3. Places you see animals, in column D and row 4
4. Beverages, in column B and row 8
5. Musical Instruments, in column A and row 5
6. Things that are collected, in column D and row 3
7. Words that rhyme with 'rain', in column A and row 8
8. Things in outer space, in column C and row 5
9. The word with the most number of letters, in each separate column, A through E.

Next, take each remaining words' row number, as the value of the letter of column the word is in, then use these letter values to complete the coordinate formula.

The terrain is mostly level, the tree cover is heavy, and the container is a small plastic jar, hidden in a typical fashion. There's green briar in the area to watch out for.

This cache is not on, or near, the railroad tracks, be safe and stay away from the tracks when searching for this hide.
