Geocache Description:

THE CITY CIRCLE SCRAMBLE

Yes, it’s that time again, so get the kids together, put fresh batteries in your GPS and come along and enjoy some fun at the 4th City Circle Tram Event.

City Circle Trams are W class and this
one number 856 was built in 1940.

                                                                                 As joint winners of last years City circle event Spruce Mooses and Team Crackers will be co-hosting this years CITY CIRCLE SCRAMBLE
Where:-
This year we will meet at the Flag Staff Gardens. There is ample free parking in King St and along Latrobe St and the city circle tram stops out front of GZ. Unfortunately trains do not stop at Flagstaff on Sunday so it will have to be Southern Cross or Melbourne Central Stations and catch the City Circle Tram.
When:-
We hope to meet at 10.30am for the briefing, start the scramble at 11.00 and have it wrapped up by 13.30 for the tally and awards.

Like previous years we are trying to make this an event that will be fun for all the family.
There will be Questions to answer, puzzles to ponder, games to play, and mysteries to solve.
You can participate as a solo player or join up with others and form a combined team.
What to bring:-
    1/ Your GPS
    2/ A writing implement and clip board.
    3/ A digital camera, only one per team.
    4/ And most importantly your sense of humour.

There are no BBQ’s at the meeting site but we will supply a couple of large portable LPG units so if you wish to bring along some food feel free, there will be a lot of cooking space. We will also have some basic refreshments available at GZ.
This year we will have questions and activities that will earn you different amount of points, you will not be expected to finish all the possible tasks, and the winner may not be the fastest or smartest but possibly the most cunning.

Any teams interested in attending this event please log your intention so we know roughly how many to cater for.

Hi all. It’s almost time!

With the help of the Mrs Coffee minus her clan the event has been independently beta tested and all looks good.

Remembering it is Melbourne, the bureau has changed the expected pleasant sunny day to one with a possibility of a bit of rain and high winds.

Unfortunately there is no shelter at the meeting point so just in case Remember you rain coats!

A good writing implement and a clip board of some type will be almost a necessity to keep the instructions together if the Bureau is correct. Also don’t forget your digital camera and gps

We have lost the use of one of our BBQs we had at our disposal but we will still be suppling one, if any one wishes to make use of it at the events conclusion.

Remember! A good sense of humour will overcome anything nature throws at us, so bring yours.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS AND A WARM THANKS TO ALL THOSE WHO ATTENDED AND MADE THIS EVENT SUCH FUN FOR US
