SORRY - This is MIA already. I will modify this when I replace.

Do you know what Rochambeau is?

Even if you do, you must go to this site: www.playRPS.com (It's pretty funny-I never would have guessed that their is an International Championship Competition!) to figure out some of our clues.

Now look around until you find the Awards link.

Scroll to the bottom. In the center there is an award that says "Pentagon Quality Site".
Now, ignore the first 4 numbers and drop off the last and you'll have a good starting location for finding this box!

Drive down this street toward the Rec Center and High School. If you go by or see a haystack you should park.

Find the blacktop path between homes. Go West Young Man or Woman;-)

Take 25 times the number of characters on the playRPS site in strides.

Now look about for something that could be construed as one of the items from this game. You will find Rochambeau beneath it, behind some camouflage items.

If you'd like a longer walk this path goes quite a ways in either direction.

Happy Hunting!

PS
Could you resist or did you give it a try? Which character? Did you win?

"An amazing computer implementation of the time honored-game, capturing the same intensity and brutal confrontations of the real-life version."

The programs contest would be a neat idea to keep kids interested and learning in a Computer Programing Class!
