Geocache Description:

In commemoration of georick402's 366-day hide streak, some local cachers decided to place a few hides in his honor. Enjoy your day, Rick! And thanks for all the fun that you have provided for the geocaching community!!!


This is one of a series of caches that will bring you to some metal sculptures celebrating different sports. The sculptures were created by artist Lisa Kaslow. Each of the caches in the series brings you to a metal sculpture featuring one or more players. At 3 of the sculptures you will be looking for a cache container. At the other 5 sculptures you will be looking for information you will need to calculate the coordinates for the location of a cache container. The calculations will involve simple addition or subtraction. We recommend that you find a place to park and walk to all of the locations in the series. You can drive and park close to most locations, but the complex is a maze. We were here during usual working hours and there were quite a few workers in the area, so be aware of potential muggles. Although there appears to be no time restrictions, we recommend daylight caching. This is a two stage multi-cache. The given coordinates will bring you to the sculptures of two football players. All of the information you need is on the sculptures.

To calculate the coordinates for the final, first find the numbers on the players' jerseys.

To get ABC, add each player's number to 673.

To get XYZ, add each player's number to 647.

The coordinates for the cache location are N39 03.ABC W076 53.XYZ.

NOTE: if you did the calcultions before 08/06/2020 and are just now looking for the cache, you will need to redo your calculations (see my log for 08/06/2020)
