Directions:
On Highway 69 in the city of Rusk, there is only one traffic light. Going south on Highway 69 at the traffic light, turn right onto Highway 84 to downtown Rusk. At the first stop sign, take a right. At the next stop sign take a left. This is the Cherokee County courthouse square. At this point you will be on Main Street. Stay on Main Street for approximately 0.4 miles until you see a green sign on the left side of the road that says "Cherokee County Precinct 1." There will be red building next to a house with a large 'Texas' outlined in stones in the front yard. In front of the red building is a side road that you will need to take and right past the red building is a sign for Butler Park and a historical marker for Rusk College. Be sure and read the historical marker. I recently saw a picture of the old Rusk College and it was truly beautiful.

Clues
1. Well you found your way to the site of the old Rusk College. Notice that there are a lot of steps at this site. If you want your "diploma" you will have to climb the stairs all the way to the top.

2. Once you have reached the very top step, stand in the middle of the step facing away from the stairs. Look to your right and walk to the green trash can on your right.

3. Continue from the trash can into the woods about 9 steps (stay to the left of a cluster of small pine trees).

4. Look to your left and you should see 2 medium pine trees about 5 steps from where you are standing. Walk to the 1st one and your diploma is at the base covered with straw and leaves.

Be careful for poison ivy/oak and for mean creatures. Please recover the box well and contact me to let me know the condition of the box. ENJOY!!!
