Geocache Description:

Easy drive by on very good dirt roads with minimal walking

Alma located on the Adelaide Plains north of Adelaide was settled by many farming families. Churches and cemeteries appeared catering for local families.

There are three parts to Alma all a short distance of a few kilometres apart. Alma why 3? takes you to two parts and lets you drive through the main town part.
These coordinates take you to the site of the Alma Plains South Church of Christ.
Take your time to look around. If you go inside please close the door.

Maths and English were both taught here so you will need to use them both to find the cache.

You will need to read the sign and answer the following.

How many children were on the register? Answer = ABC

A new chapel was built to seat how many people? Answer = DEF.

What year did the school close? Answer = 19GH

To find the cache simple complete the following:

(ABC divided by 2)plus 20 =IJK

DEF minus GH minus 1 = LMN

Happy caching.
