Mongo: ### LAST CHANCE BEFORE ARCHIVE ###

Greetings hallwayweb,

I really hate to write this note but in looking over all of the information it appears this cache has needed maintenance for quite some time. This will be the last informative note left before it will be archived.

The cache owner needs to do one of the following things to stop this from happening:

Go out ASAP and fix up the cache so it is ready to be found once again.
If you no longer wish to maintain this cache then go out and retrieve the remnants and archive the cache. HOW TO ARCHIVE MY CACHE
If you desire to do so, try and adopt the cache out to someone if you can find a new owner. ADOPT MY CACHE TO SOMEONE
Post a Note to Reviewer with your exact plan of maintenance. (i.e. I plan to have this up and running by this date XX/XX/XXX)

Please note: any cache that is going to be disabled for longer than 6 months for such reasons as construction etc. should be archived.

Geocaches not maintained by the owner will still be archived even when a throwdown container has been left. Ownership Regarding Throwdowns

Once again, if nothing is done it will be archived. Once archived for maintenance issues it will not be unarchived. ARCHIVING IS PERMANENT

Do not email the reviewer since more than one reviewer does maintenance work for Missouri.

Many thanks,

Geocache Description:

Congrats to cadence57, MelDuck, and zone3121 on the FTF!!

Welcome to the Sarcoxie City Square. This should be a fun, but challenging puzzle cache. Please be respectful of the property and its contents and patrons. Anything that you move must be put back in its exact original position. Also watch for muggles as they may be thick during business hours.

You should be standing in or near the gazebo in the center of the square. You will need to find 5 pieces of information on the City Square in order to solve this puzzle. Once you have solved the puzzle, you'll enter the library to make the find.

A - Freemasons are members of a secret society that was glorified in the National Treasure series of movies. You'll need to find the infamous masonic square and compasses. Around the symbol is a number. This number is represented by A.

B - On an item that Pass & Stow would've been proud of is a 2 digit number. This number is represented by B.

C - Find the STATE BANK. What is the address of the building? This number is represented by C.

D - Search the square for the year the city was founded. This number is represented by D.

E - Sitting atop a sign that signifies the American bicentennial is a 3 digit number. This number is represented by E.

Once you have these 5 numbers, solve this equation: A+B+C-D = F

You're looking for a clue sitting behind the residents of F. Once you have that clue, you'll head to its residents and use E once you find the container. Container is a bison tube with a log inside.

The library is open Monday-Friday 9:00am-6:00 pm and Saturday 9:00 am-1:00 pm. You will need to try this one during these hours in order to score the find.

Permission was granted by Carolina Chapman, Library Director. Thanks to Brandy-Jack for the idea on the final container.
