Geocache Description:

A Walking Tour of 7 Cuba Murals.


A local nonprofit community beautification organization, Viva Cuba, founded in 1984, had a goal to complete 12 building murals along historic Route 66 by 2007, which was Cuba’s 150th anniversary. The project began in 2001.

The Missouri House and Senate have proclaimed Cuba "Route 66 Mural City." This Viva Cuba project is part of a citywide effort to revitalize the original business district and to make the community more attractive to tourists and people thinking of settling in the community.

However, this one may be a bit more of a puzzle, because for one, We're not going to give you the coordinates to any of the murals. The coordinates shown for this cache is the intersection of Old Route 66 and Smith Street. All the murals for this cache are within few blocks of each other and you can easily walk to each one.

When finding each mural, figure out which photo goes with that mural and write it's name next to it. Use the number to the left of the picture to figure out the final waypoint.

Now, use the following key to determine the final cache's location:

The final cache is at N 38 Apples and Barrels,County Fair, point, Peoples Bank, Blue Bonnet, Roberts-Judson and W 091 Prosperity Corner, Amelia, point, Prosperity Corner,County Fair, Blue Bonnet. Simply take the number that is typed to the left each murals photo and replace the murals name with that number. At each mural you will be able to discover each murals name.

N 38 ___ ___ . ___ ___ ___ (Apples and Barrels, County Fair, point, Peoples Bank, Blue Bonnet, Roberts-Judson)

W 91 ___ ___ . ___ ___ ___ (Prosperity Corner, Amelia, point, Prosperity Corner, County Fair, Blue Bonnet)

The final cache lies within a small Cuba Park/Garden. It is a unique micro cache.

PLEASE BE DISCREET. REPLACE AS FOUND!!!

BE COURTEOUS!! No need to dig around or bother any plants!!

We hope you like the tour!! It shouldn't take too long. Have fun!!
