Description
A re-listing of this cache which Groundspeak archived.
The cache is not at the listed coords. This is a challenge and a puzzle cache.
The Challenge
This is a so-called challenge cache for which you need to perform a particular task prior to being allowed to log a find. It used to be listed on Groundspeak's site until they decided they didn't want it.
This challenge simply requires you to attend and log ten consecutive SA events. That is ten events in a row without missing any. The upside of having it re-listed here is that now you can include GCA events in your count!
Rules:
Megas, CITOs and of course regular events all count.
Past events can be used if you've already done ten in a row. (Has anyone already done this?)
You may find other caches in between events.
It would be nice if you could do it without including your own events but if you must you can count them (even if you don't log a "Attended" on your own).
In your 'Found It' logs you need to include the gc codes and the dates of the ten events. You may post a image like mine below if you wish.

Now before you say that it is impossible, I did 13 in a row as shown in the image below! (and it would have been more if not for double-ups at the start and end)
The Puzzle
The cache can be found at:
South (GC3PWHX + GC3PTJV - 2)° (GC42QC9 + GC2N1VK + GC45B7Z - 1).(GC3AVG9 + GC3JYWG + GC3B4X5 + GC3QD8D + GC44RPR + GC3WZB9 + GC22AGH - 7)
East (GC3FXFG + GC3W645 + GC3RYVK + GC442MH - 2)° (GC2YQYV + GC3D0XE).(GC46BEJ + GC2PWBC + GC2T407 - 2)
Please rehide the cache well.
Good Luck!

Before we could look for the cache, there was a puzzle to be solved. This proved a little difficult as the data on which the puzzle was based had changed since the cache was published. However the CO put us back on track and we had a set of confirmed coordinates.
Today we went to look for the cache. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Laighside Legends for a very enjoyable challenge and for coordinating the most recent sequence of 10 events to give us the opportunity of meeting the requirements.
In other news, next weekend offers 10 events in 5 days - perfect chance to complete the challenge!
