Geocache Description:


Geek Out with Two New Souvenirs for Pi Day

While some folks celebrate Pi Day on March 14 (3.14) with a slice of pi pie, we’re celebrating this year’s Pi Day with two new souvenirs. The first souvenir is inspired by the groups of people who have an irrational love for irrational numbers. Just attend an event, including CITO or a Mega-Event on Pi Day and you’ll earn this souvenir. The second souvenir celebrates the mystery of pi—to earn it, log a “Found It” on a Mystery Cache on March 14.

 

Bring a digit with you to see how much of the irrational number Pi we can construct. (Regular 8 1/2 X 11 inch sheet of paper with a large single digit number listed) Since π is irrational, it has an infinite number of digits in its decimal representation, and it does not settle into an infinitely repeating pattern of digits.

The symbol used by mathematicians to represent the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter is the lowercase Greek letter π, sometimes spelled out as pi. In English, π is pronounced as "pie" ( /p/, paɪ).[4] In mathematical use, the lowercase letter π (or π in sans-serif font) is distinguished from its capital counterpart Π, which denotes a product of a sequence.

3.14.15 @ 9:26:53  Geocachers will gather and arrange themselves in a line based on the digits of Pi. 

Once everyone is in place we will snap a group photo.

    
I know it is early, but everyone bring your favorite pie to share!

We will endulge in pie and geocaching stories before being on our way.

Event time 9:26:53 to 10:30 am.
