Geocache Description:


Big thanks to cameracowgirl for taking the official photo!



Saturday, 4 May 2013 at exactly 10:00 am local time

Thousands of geocachers around the world will seemingly appear out of nowhere, all at exactly the same time, for a...

WORLD WIDE FLASH MOB!


A "flash mob" is where a group of people seemingly appears out of nowhere and starts doing something in public.

What's a "world wide flash mob"? It's where hundreds of geocaching flash mob events all around the world are coordinated to happen at exactly the same time. Last year, there were over 15000 attendees at 312 events in 31 countries!


The plan
Leading up to the start time, don't congregate at the posted coordinates. Mill around nearby, enjoy the view, take pictures, and otherwise act as if you're just a run-of-the-mill tourist checking out Clover Point who has never heard of geocaching.

At exactly 10:00 am on our GPSrs, The A-Team and TheG-Force will appear and set up a table at the posted coordinates. A bunch of run-of-the-mill tourists will suddenly transform into geocachers, who will all converge on the posted coordinates for a 15 minute gathering! There will be a logbook for everyone to sign and raffle entries to fill out for the chance to win a special WWFM X geocoin!

At 10:05, we'll take a group photo.
At 10:10, we'll do the draw for the geocoin.
At 10:15, all the gathered geocachers will turn back into run-of-the-mill tourists and disperse. Any nearby muggles will be left wondering what they just witnessed!


Other Info
The event will only last 15 minutes, so make sure you give yourself enough time to get there.

I've learned that there will be a souvenir available for attendees. Make sure you submit your "Attended" log soon after the event so you don't miss out on receiving the souvenir.

This event isn't just for geocachers. If you have some muggle friends that you want to introduce to geocaching, you're more than welcome to bring them along! There'll likely also be some muggles on site that will be wondering what's going on, so we'll have some flyers explaining geocaching that we can hand out to them.

Have fun!
