Geocache Description:

This is a spot that just needed a cache. Some arithmetic is required.

Parking is available immediately next to the listed coordinates. At this location you will need to find some answers to locate the actual cache. First, you will need to answer the following question: “What year did Mary Hanson first win the Fall Festival 5K while running for the Timberhill Harriers?” The answer is at your feet. The two digit year is AA. Now, if there was still a phone booth nearby, you would have been able to note that the last two digits of its phone number are BB. Since that phone booth was stolen by muggles, you will have to note the maximum number of minutes you can park at the nearby parking spot to learn the value of BB. The address of the building at this "welcoming place" is CCC. The nearby flagpole was donated in year DDDD.

Calculate EEE = AA * 6 + 20
FF = CCC – 371
GG = DDDD - 1951
The cache is at: N44 GG.0FF W123 BB.EEE

In the above formula, the * symbol means multiply. Bring your own pencil.
