KY Heritage Cache #7 (Historic Danville) Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

Max Cacher: Greetings from Geocaching.com

It looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While we feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. So that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

If you are in the process of replacing or repairing your cache please e-mail me in response to this archival, and I will unarchive your cache.

After we posted a note to you cache requesting a response from you to post what you were planning to do with the cache on the page and sending us a note. We have no record of a response, and no response tells us that you are not planning on replacing, or repairing this cache if we are wrong with that assumption please let me know.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Geocache Description:

"Caching" in on on another of Kentucky's claims to fame, this one will take you back in time through Historic Danville, a city of "Firsts." Leave yourself a li'l time for this one to truly appreciate Constitution Park.


The above coordinates will take you to a familiar looking statue in Constitution Park, Danville, KY. The park is home to several recreated frontier log buildings and a wealth of information. Your task is to find the information below and then decode the cache's hiding spot. The cache itself is a clear film canister hidden near by at coordinates:

N 37o 3F.BAE’ W 084o 4C.ABD’

This cache should be quite canine friendly (as long as you have a leash) and IS handicap accessible. For more information on this historic location (such as hours that the buildings are open, etc.), just click on the picture above. ALSO: Check out the pictures BELOW of The Li'lest Bears helping lay out this cache for you.
A = The number of "Ruby"s around the statue.
B = The third digit of the year in which Dr. Goldsmith died.
C = The day in May when a Virginia statute created the first KY District Court.
D = The number of glass windows that have bars over them in the jail.
E = The number of "The Crows" whose first names begin with the letter "J".
F = The number of the month that Thomas Barbee was commissioned as Postmaster.
