Geocaching at the MOTD7
Last year my wife and I hosted a geocaching event- unfortunately, we won't be able to attend this year (the stars keep moving out of alignment). I've received a couple PMs about having one this year... so I thought I would throw it out the group and let someone give it a shot. I'm hoping that we will be back in 2010, there are some fantastic caches out there that we still haven't gotten.
EDITED 2/1/09 by Snooter: This is event has been added to the MOTD calendar, please sign up at this LINK if you plan on attending. |
I missed last years events but would definitly like to go after a few. So maybe if it's not a great event like last year with tags, but i'm still willing to get together with everyone to run after some. Definitly need to hit the TN side as well. Gotta color in my states on my profile map..

A pathtag could be made in time visit www.pathtags.com there is a .jpg template on the website, I have a photoshop template which I like better. A .jpg file needs to submitted.

Jeff, you and I could work together and organize the event. With the help of Bruce, of course.
I emailed Snooter for the MOTD 7 logo. Once I get it I can start the pathtag process. What do you think? |

Hey Ang tell your birdie thanks. I was wondering if you would want a different color than the brg so we have a different color every year....just a thought. What about you?
|
I already ordered it. Plus I was having it made to match the MOTD logo. But good idea. Maybe next year we will have a different color. :thumbsup:
|
Okay, we're all set....
Here is the sign up page on the MOTD site. http://www.minisonthedragon.info/2009_geocaching.html |

slackers :lol:

I know we had some troubles getting it posted last year... got a nasty gram from the reviewer who was concerned it was just for car people. They never read the description that invited all cachers regardless of cachemobile to enjoy. They will question it if you are not from NC and they don't approve events further than three months out.
Great design for the Pathtag! Wish I could make it. I'm hunting for the handout from last year and will update it and make sure it you get it. |

Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share your experiences online. Geocaching is enjoyed by people from all age groups, with a strong sense of community and support for the environment. Hopefully that gives you a better idea of what geocaching is. As for the event, I believe it's mainly going to be a get together to meet fellow cachers who also happen to love little British cars :) I'm sure afterwards there will be folks who go hunting for the caches located in the area. It's a great hobby, and relatively inexpensive at that! Plus you get the added bonus of seeing places you may never have known about. :grin: |
Looks like we're going to have a pretty good turn out.
As we get closer (lots closer) to the event, I have some more info. available now.... I am not putting a limit on the amount of pathtags that you can buy for this event. I ordered 50 so when they're gone, they're gone. $3 per tag. If you have pathtags of your own that you'd like to trade for one of the event tags, I more than welcome the trade!!! LOL!!! I have ordered / received items for the prize drawings.... -Geocaching Prize Pack x 2 ("Signal" antenna topper, Geocaching window sticker, Geocaching water bottle) -Geocaching License Plate Frame x 2 -"Did Not Find" geocoin -"TN-NC Appalachian Trail" geocoin -"Union Jack Flag" geocoin My geo-co-host is putting together a hand out of local caches. This hand out will include all pertinent info. on the cache (coordinates, terrain, difficulty, and description). Can't wait to see everyone! :grin: |
