Geocache Description:

Let's Celebrate 101 years of the first coast to coast highway!


This is the 7th year we are hosting a

Post-Thanksgiving Event!

We are at a new location this year!

So come and join us for a hearty breakfast

at Rumor's Restaurant in Hanna, Indiana!

A wonderful restaurant suggested by GooseNest!

WIFI is available! And we will have Door Prizes as well!

In Indiana the original Lincoln Highway alignment became US30 (through Fort Wayne), US 33, US 20, and Indiana 2 until it realigned with US 30 in Valparaiso. The 1926 Indiana alignment became US 30 from the Ohio-Indiana line to the Illinois state line. It was at that time the highway was routed through Hanna! Which is why we are here today! Well besides geocaching of course!

Event Details:

Time: 7:00 am - 8:30 am central time.

FYI...They actually open at 5:30 am (But I won't be there that early! lol!)

We are doing it like the past couple of years.

And having a SECRET SANTA - CACHING STYLE!

(It's not required that you participate to attend the event...

it's just some added fun if you do!)

However, if you plan to participate in secret Santa caching style, you will need a bison tube or micro and another larger regular cache.

LARGER REGULAR CACHE - Fill your cache container with typical geo type swag. Then place it as a temporary cache within 10 miles of the event.

Kindly keep terrain ratings an average of 1.5 to allow accessibility for all caching abilities.

BISON TUBE / FILM CANISTER (MICRO) - Put the coordinates of the hidden temporary cache in the bison tube or film canister. Also include a contact number should the recipient of your cache need to call you for help.

EXCHANGE - At 8:00 all bison tubes / film canisters (micros) with coords will be put in a stocking.

Each cacher who has participated with a bison tube / film canister (micro) and has hidden a larger regular cache, will be able to choose a micro from the stocking. Both micro and the larger regular cache may then be used to place permanent caches later if desired.

You may hide more than one if you desire.

But remember these are temporary caches and are not to be submitted like a permanent cache.

Note: When posting your "Will Attend", if you can, please give some idea of how many in your group. It will help a lot with the planning.

P.S. After the Door Prizes there will HOPEFULLY be some brand new caches released that won't be published until the next day! Giving the attendees first chance to get some FTFs!!

If you have questions? Email us!
Have fun -and- Happy caching!
Thanks! Hope to see you there!
