Posted coords are for WP1. This letterbox is placed inside the Henrietta Public Library. You will need to gather some info outside the library before going inside to make the find. (No advanced math required for this. You could even say it's 'retiree-friendly".) Special thanks to Spooko13 for beta testing. This cache is only available during library hours, which are:
| Monday |
9:00am - 9:00pm |

You will need to TRAVEL to a couple of spots to get the info you need before going to TRAVEL inside. All info needed is winter friendly. The format of your destination is: 9AB.CDEF
A) From the parking, go to WP1 and look for a date in the lower left corner. The 3rd digit is A.
B) At this same spot, the last digit minus 1 is B.
Now walk to your right (east) to the other corner of the building. Find a REALLLLY big book. (Note: The title of the book should be "Hosea plays on". If it's not, please message me immediately, as the library has likely had it re-painted.)
C) On the back of the book there is a date (year). The 3rd digit plus 2 is C.
D) On the front of the book, there are words printed on the pages (2 sentences). The total number of letters in the last word in the 2nd sentence is D.
E) Still on the front of the book, this time in the first sentence. Total number of letters in the first word plus 3 is E.
F) Again in the same sentence. Total number of letters in the second word plus 3 is F.
Now you have all the info you need to go inside and get the cache. There is a stamp and inkpad inside the cache - please do not remove them (obviously). If you are new to caching, this is a good one to start with. Please be advised that in order to log this as a find that you need to physically sign the log. There is a 20th anniversary HQ unactivated geocoin as a prize for the FTF. Special thanks to Sarah Dennison of the Henrietta Public Library for approving this cache.
Checksum for A+B = 8
Checksum for C+D+E+F = 28
Congrats to the Mack4 on the FTF!
7/31/23 UPDATE: I have confrimed with the Library Staff member that helped approve this cache that it is NOT listed in the library directory, and therefore cannot be "checked-out". The staff member has said she will let all staff know again about its presence there in the event cachers need to ask any staff personnel for assistance.
