Update 5/22/2022: If you've previously solved this one, solve again! Final has been moved 11/11/21; puzzle updated accordingly. Puzzle again updated as one of the park elements changed this spring 2022.
The Scouts (BSA) "Cache to Eagle" series is a National program to highlight past Eagle Scout projects. This is the tenth cache for the Chester County Council (CCC), celebrating our council's 100th anniversary!
The posted location takes you to Fisher Park / Manovan Park in Phoenixville. Here you will find a set of garden stairs from the tennis courts to a small garden, and a pathway from handicapped parking to the large playground. These Eagle projects are by scouts from Troop 50, Diamond Rock District. You'll also find a new shed to help store park equipment (2021).
To find this geocache, you will need to solve a site puzzle. Solve for N40 7.ABC W75 30.DEF.
A = number of concrete & wood steps in garden path up from tennis courts
B = number of slides in small "playground" above garden path + 4 (updated 5/22/22)
C = number of swings in large playground - 6
D = number of concrete sections in the sidewalk to the large playground - 5
E = twice the number of cedars near garden path and small "playground" - 1
F = number of posts in picnic pavilion - 5 (typo corrected 4/27/23)
Count carefully. Checksum still = 22 (4/27/23)
