Geocache Description:


TBC - Clowder Meet and Greet at Marathon Park

Mrs. Black-Cat turns 50 this day, and this event is to celebrate that milestone and to commiserate everything that goes along with it.

 

 

Team Black-Cat 

Update! RickBlick has extended an invitation to anyone attending this event to join him at The Kelly Club in Weston after the event. Let's help Rick celebrate his (belated) birthday and drain the quarter barrel he won a few weeks ago.

This is a social event to compare geocaching notes, share some food, tell stories and enjoy the company of fellow cachers. Team Black-Cat will provide hot dogs, buns, catsup etc for the group along with chips, plates and napkins. Any pot luck type item(s) that you bring would be greatly appreciated and everyone please bring your own beverages and chairs. Marathon Park does allow alcoholic beverages if you so choose.

We will be at shelter #1, which is just east of the main entrance to the park. The event is scheduled to begin at 1:00 PM, but you are welcome to show up earlier if you like. The grill will be fired up at 3:00, and the food will be available shortly after that.

This event is an opportunity to catch up with some old friends and make some new ones. For those not from the area - it is a good opportunity to pick up some great local caches.  Be prepared to chat about your caching adventures; bring your travel bugs and geo coins to swap or show; and/or bring a supply of your signature items to trade or give away. We will have some puzzles and games as entertainment for the young and the young-at-heart cachers (anything additional would be appreciated).

During the event, drawings will be made from the log entries. Prizes to be given away include several uncirculated geo coins, as well as other geocaching related items.

Several new caches will be released the day of the event by local cachers.

This event officially ends at 6:00 PM, but you are free to stick around as long as you wish.

The original idea was to have multiple "flash mob" events this day but this didn't meet the event guidelines.  If enough are interested, we would still like to incorporate one or more flash mob "events" as part of this meet and greet. Please indicate your interest in your will attend log.

Marathon Park has a food and drink vending area, video arcade, kiddy wading pool, and a number of playground areas. Camping is available. Campground reservation phone number is (715) 261-1566. The amphitheater will have live music the evening of the event
