Geocache Description:


From the above location, you will begin to collect the information needed to compute the final cache location. (Note: this area can be quite busy in summer months.) 

Starting at the posted coordinates, take the sidewalk in a counter-clockwise direction around the perimeter of Leon Corlew Park and easily gather the following information: 

 

A = number of thicker main vertical posts along the black fence line near the posted coordinates

B = at the Bioswale sign, number of letters in the first word of the name of the Creek that the graphic shows the purified water eventually makes its way to

C = as you continue to follow the path, there will be a plant sign at the Northwest corner of the splash pad, total number of words shown that make up the combination of BOTH the scientific AND common names of this plant

D = at the giant tombstone behind the bathroom building, the third digit in the last year on the marker

E = at the 2 benches near the giant tombstone, number of letters in the first name of the Director of the Shelter Care Home for 22 years

= the number of UNABBREVIATED FULL words on the manhole cover which will be on your left after the sidewalk intersection as you start to ascend a slight incline

G = number of screws at ground level holding the base of the drinking fountains at the Southeast corner of the park

H = finally, at the main entrance to Leon Corlew Park where the 2 large brick pillars are, number of partnership organizations shown that made the construction of this park possible

FINAL CACHE IS AT 38 4A.FCG -089 5B.HDE
