Geocache Description:


In 2008,a Kent State University student painted and created the mural before you which depicts several of the Goodyear Heights activities, locations and history. To find the final location of the cache, please observe some of the many panels in the mural. Your final location will be:

N 41 4.ABC

W 81 28.DEF

A. What is the iconic object pictured in the bottom right corner panel? How many letters are in the name of this object? Looking directly above this object are how many people? Subtract the number of people from the number of letters in the object. 

B. Locate the football team. Count the number of players in the top row and divide by two. 

C. Find the name of a girl prominately shown on the mural. Count the number of letters in this name and subtract the number of nocturnal birds displayed. 

D. How many bricks are in the Goodyear Heights home builder's wheelbarrow?

E. East High School's mascot is "Chang", a dragon. Find the dragon and use the second number of the year of the class which dedicated the original artwork. 

F. What is the third number of the year associated with the Summit County Metro Parks?

The total of A through F equals 15 and the final is less than 1 mile from the mural. 

We hope you enjoyed the mural and took time to look it over. There is an informational sign immediately to the left of the mural listing all the various pictures and drawings. Please enjoy and while you are here, another cache, GC7ABN6 is within feet of the mural. 

While we were putting together the numbers from the mural we spoke to one of the employees from the hair salon nearby and explained to her what geocaching was. She seemed pretty interested. Congratulations to kalacheers18 for FTF.
