Once again the Space Coast Geocachers will be hosting a multi event honoring this unusual day the tenth day of the tenth month of the 10 year. We are once again involved in the group project of the making of the Powers ofm 10 Geocoin. We will only have 75 of these coins available at the event.

At this event we will incorporate our 10 virtues of caching:

  1. Join a Club

  2. Mark your car

  3. Respect Nature

  4. Respect Private Property

  5. Trade even or Trade Up

  6. Rehide as well or better than you found it

  7. Be Stealthy

  8. Hide a Cache and give back to the game

  9. Practice CITO

  10. Write a good log

We will be placing some new and possibly some temporary caches for everyone to do while in the park.  We have a few ideas of things to do during the event so keep checking back on the cache page or become a fan on Facebook to keep up with what is going on. 

This event will be held at F. Burton Smith Park in Cocoa on HWY 520 West of Interstate 95.  The event will start promptly at 10:10 a.m.  A group photo will be taken and then you will be free to schmooze or head out and grab some caches. 

We are not renting the pavilion but as of now it will be available for our use. If that changes we will set up some canopies nearby and make due...after all we are geocachers.
