Geocache Description:

If you find yourself standing in front of a 7-11, you have choosen to follow the coordinates above. They are false, you will find no cache there. But if you are already there, stop on in for a Slurpee or a donut. Otherwise, solve this puzzle to find the McCache. If you are stumped along the way, just email for extra clues.

This cache is geared towards the next generation of cachers. Below is a puzzle (the "Crossword Puzzle" image below) for them to solve, they just have to find the answer. This is an opportunity for parents to teach their kids how to look up information. Each clue can be answered with one or two word searches and a little reading. Hopefully, along the way the kids will learn a few things, not the least of which is doing research. To start, print off the crossword puzzle and solve it.

Then once finished find the coordinates by counting the letters listed below and replacing it with that number. So if it says "a", and there are 8 "a"'s, use the 8 in it's place below. North 53 BH.VDQ West 113 FK.MZG If all works well, you shall find the McToy chest.
